LEARN MORE ABOUT THE COURSE
In the Certificate III in Business, you’ll learn about how a business operates and what is the best thing to do in a business environment. You could be starting in and Admin Assistant role in a larger organisation, or a Team Leader or even an Office Manager for a smaller business.
Some of the things you’ll do in your job at this level would include using some discretion in business practices, judgment and responsibility for the admin of the business, and applying relevant theoretical knowledge. You may even provide technical advice and support to a team. You’ll work with outside suppliers to purchase the right equipment, make sure they arrive on time and work properly. You might work under supervision, and may have some authority to delegate.
We’re pretty sure you’ll also get a lot of confidence to prepare you for work. You can learn how to do business stuff in a business environment, try a few things, get some feedback from our Mentors, and then become really good at this. You can slap your resume - complete with your new Certificate III in Business qualification - onto the desk of the job interviewer knowing you’ve got what they want!
The Certificate III in Business is an entry-level course, which means you can go almost anywhere once you’ve got some experience and shown how good you are! Some of our graduates head down these paths;
- Admin Assistant
- Office Junior/Support
- Customer Service
- Internal Sales/Admin
- Receptionist
- Hospitality
- Retail
You’ll naturally get credit for what you do in this course. Upon completing a Certificate III in Business, you can continue your studies through the Certificate IV in Business and/or Diplomas of Business.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE ME TO COMPLETE?
The average dedicated student should expect to do 1 unit every 2 weeks. In a Certificate III in Business, there are 12 units to complete. So, you should expect around 6 months to complete. It’s OK to take longer, but there is a maximum time frame of 12 months.
There is no minimum time period, meaning if you have the time now to apply yourself, you can complete this course as fast as want.
