The Certificate IV in Leadership and Management reflects the role of an emerging or developing leader or manager across a range of industry and enterprise contexts. In addition to their own performance, individuals are also responsible for providing guidance, leadership and support to ensure successful output. The manager will apply appropriate solutions to a range of both predictable and unpredictable problems, and evaluate and analyse data from various sources.

Demonstrating your current proficiency at a comparable level can be done through a CV (your student support representative can assist with this), an employment letter, or an employment contract.

Additionally, documents from prior work or educational experiences, such as references from licensed tradespeople you’ve collaborated with, apprenticeship records, academic transcripts, or assessments from relevant past qualifications, all contribute to the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process. You can also submit proof of overseas qualifications or visual evidence of your work, especially for practical roles.
