Yes, real experience directing operations, managing a business function or leading a team can be formally assessed against the Diploma of Leadership and Management. ATSR guides you through gathering that evidence, and a partner RTO conducts the formal assessment before the diploma is issued.
You need documented evidence of your leadership and management work, such as plans, reports or policies you've authored, testimonials from supervisors, colleagues or clients, and things like meeting minutes, rosters or organisational charts. This evidence needs to clearly show your role in directing operations and managing people.
Yes, it's the exact same AQF-registered Diploma of Leadership and Management, issued by an ASQA-registered RTO no matter which pathway you take. RPL leads to the identical qualification, assessed a different way.
A Diploma of Leadership and Management supports roles such as operations manager, business manager and office manager, giving formal recognition to the leadership work you're already doing. It's often used by people already managing teams or operations who want the paper qualification to match their responsibilities.
