Postgraduate Certificate in Business – PGCertBus

If you are a graduate that wants to study selected courses in business, the Postgraduate Certificate in Business (PGCertBus) may be suitable for you.

Our lecturers are actively researching, bringing the most relevant developments in business theory and practice to your study.

The PGCertBus can be completed in 1 semester of full-time study or by part-time study over a longer period.

The qualification is generally awarded without endorsement.

After completing the PGCertBus you could move on to a Postgraduate Diploma in Business, or master’s qualifications.

Want to continue to an Executive MBA?

The qualification does offer an endorsement in Business Administration. This endorsement is intended for students who wish to continue on to the Executive MBA, and it has more prescribed courses and entry requirements.
