BSB51918 – Diploma of Leadership and Management

This training is subsidised by the NSW Government

A manager’s most important, and most difficult job is to manage people – others and self. You must lead, mentor, motivate, inspire, encourage, discipline and evaluate employees. As a manager you have the authority to sanction or restrict most aspects of the working day of your employees. This places you in a position of power and responsibility. Managing people is not simple or easy, however, it can be done successfully and can be a very rewarding experience. Remember that management, like any other skill, is something that you can improve with reflection, study and practice. This page provides details on the BSB51918 Diploma of Leadership & Management offered by ITTA.

BSB51918 | Student Feedback

Read feedback from our previous students!

“Hi Kerry, Thanks for the feedback. I am actually using a lot of the skills and knowledge from this course in a variety of ways, it has been really helpful. The role I took on earlier this year has seen me use everything I have learned on both the TAE and this Leadership and Management course. It has me considering a career change. Thanks and all the best.” Jacqui

“I have found the Academy to be most supportive and helpful in assisting me to gain this qualification. I would highly recommend both the International Teacher Training Academy and the Diploma of Leadership and Management to Aboriginal managers/supervisors/coordinators who are looking to improve their management and leadership skills.” Janelle Brown – Gurehlgam.

“Hi Kerry, Thank you for flexibility with those dates, I do appreciate it. Most of us are under a rather heavy workload and like many others I was approaching this with dread and anticipated racing through it at a hundred miles an hour just to knock it over. But for the record found it an absolutely fantastic unit. Well written, and with assessments that were equally well-written and fair. It’s learning that I really enjoyed and found valuable – so thank you! I’ve already snaffled a copy of Goleman from a local op shop, and it’s on my to-read list, so am looking forward to continuing the journey.” Trav.

“Hi Kerry, Thank you for your email. I am so pleased to have completed my EI unit. I found it very interesting and helpful. Thank you so much for your patience with me as well as for your feedback and thoughts on my assessments. I really appreciate all your thoughtfulness. Thank you also for your recommendations for the books. I will read them as I think this is such a vital subject in the world we live in today, and yet, it is so underutilised in the work environment. Thanks again for all your help Kerry! Have a great day!” Kind Regards, Steve.

“Kerry, This activity has given me some insights about my unknown self and some confidence of my intellectual capabilities. My colleagues have portrayed me to be smart and intelligent. I’m a modest person and do not believe in self-praise. Most of the time I underestimate my intelligence and capabilities. Due to my modesty I am self-conscious and at times feel tense to attempt new tasks. Now I have confidence in my ability and intelligence to move forward in my life and career. I know I am a friendly and helpful person. I normally do not wait for others to seek help from me but am always willing to offer help to others. Thank you so much.” KN

9/7/2019 “I have already recommended this course to everyone I speak to in the community and at my workplace. The course and content was well delivered by ITTA. My teacher Kerry, is supportive and I could understand her processes when she spoke. I was not a studying person and I didn’t like school. This course has changed me and I am now looking to other studies. I learned, to be a good leader, you need this course and a good leader to teach you.”

19/10/20:  “Dear Kerry, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have been an amazing tutor and friend at times. I hope life treats you well and you continue to be there for people like me, you are an inspiration!!!” KA

Class Updates, Highlights and Success Stories

Had a fabulous day today with my Grafton group.  One of the students brought her two friends from Hong Kong and England to the workshop to allow the class to interview them. This provided a wonderful opportunity for the class to learn about and gain appreciation of other cultures. The learning gained from this interaction is truly wonderful and it is marvelous to see each student’s understanding grow as they gain knowledge of the differences and the feelings shared. After the interviews where conducted, I was delighted when one of my students remarked “if I ever see an Asian person sitting alone in a pub I am going to go up and chat to them”  this is what the learning is all about. Lesson learnt and put into action. (Kerry Hall)

I was thrilled to hear one of my students was successful in obtaining a promotion this week, especially as we had recently been working on negotiation skills in the unit BSBLDR503 Communicate with influence. As part of the unit, the students must learn to negotiate, present, and mediate. To prepare the student for his upcoming interview, we contextualised the negotiation task a little and used it to have a practice interview. I would like to think that this practical learning gave the student that extra confidence and skills to demonstrate to the panel his ability to step up to the management level. A great achievement! (Kerry Hall).

Recently, one of my students provided feedback as part of a speech she prepared for one of her assessment tasks.  It is so rewarding as a Trainer and Assessor to know that the learning we are providing is absolutely relevant and that it is not only meeting industry needs but it is truly making a difference.  Here is what she says:

1. Gain a Diploma in Leadership and Management
2. Broaden my knowledge and understanding of the skills needed to become a leader and manager

As I am currently working, this Diploma will give me the skills to help progress further in my career. I wish to one day become a Team Leader within the department and potentially work my way up to a General Manager. This Diploma will give me extra knowledge in the industry and will potentially put me ahead of other candidates who wish to gain a new position in the workplace.
