Get formal, nationally recognised standing for the strategic leadership work you already do. The CHC62015 Advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management recognises the skills of middle and senior managers who plan service delivery, manage budgets and risk, lead teams and report to executive management or boards of management across community sector organisations. Through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), your on-the-job experience running programs, services or teams is matched against this qualification’s requirements and assessed by a partner registered training organisation. ATSR guides you through gathering the right evidence so your leadership experience converts into a nationally recognised, AQF-registered qualification.

The assessor is looking for evidence across the full scope of the qualification, from planning through to financial management.
Yes, it's the identical AQF-registered Advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management, issued by an ASQA-registered RTO regardless of the pathway used to earn it. RPL is a recognised route to the same qualification, not a separate or reduced version of it.
An Advanced Diploma of Community Sector Management through RPL gives you the same qualification that community development manager, project manager and community care manager roles are typically built around. It formally recognises the strategic and financial management experience you've already gained, including work reporting to executives or a board of management.
