Qualification Description
This qualification allows for the attainment of competencies required for independent and self-directed work in the public sector. There may be supervisory responsibilities.
The generalist qualification is particularly suited to those working in an environment where there are a range of responsibilities which are diverse in nature rather than within a narrow specialisation and/or who work in small or regionally based organisations. Chosen elective units should reflect the responsibilities of the individual.
The injury management specialisation covers the skills required for working as injury management case manager in the public sector.
The workplace inspection specialisation covers the skills required for those responsible for the conduct of statutory investigation and enforcement requirements under any of the following legislative frameworks: work health and safety, workers’ compensation, injury management or workplace relations.
The policy development specialisation covers the skills required to develop organisational and public policy within the public sector.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication.

Where a defined specialisation is completed as listed below, the resultant testamur can be titled: Diploma of Government (field of study) e.g. Diploma of Government (Injury management).
