The Certificate III in Business is an applied qualification. This means the student is required to clearly demonstrate practical assessment relating to most units. This either occurs in a workplace (in a paid or volunteer position) or if not available, in a simulated work environment (provided by TasTAFE).
In this course you’ll learn a range of practical skills including designing, writing and producing simple business documents, personal wellbeing and work priorities, workplace communication, critical thinking and inclusive work practices. This nationally-recognised qualification is ideal if you are looking to develop a wide-range of entry-level skills for working in a modern office environment. Put yourself ahead of your peers when applying for your first administrative job, or give yourself a skills boost in your current role.
