Launch of Canberra Institute of Technology's Diploma of Project Management
Michael Young

The Canberra Institute of Technology’s Faculty of Business and Information Technology and the ACT Chapter of the Australian Institute of Project Management (AIPM) are pleased launch the new Diploma in Project Management. AIPM and CIT have collaborated to develop the course in response to industry demand and a looming skills shortage. The current labour market in Canberra sees a demand for project managers across all areas of the government sector, and AIPM confirms the need for qualified project managers across the industries of Construction Engineering, Information Technology, Local Government, Government, Environment, Defence, Finance and Law.

Delivered through a combination of face-to-face and online methods, this programme will provide a high level of practical skills to be employed in the management of all business work place projects. Indsutry Reference Group Chair & ACT Chapter Councillor, Michael Young, indicated that "flexible delivery is great for busy project managers, it allows for immediate application of newly learnt skills and knowledge in the workplace".

AIPM CEO, Mr Peter Shears, was also pleased to announce AIPMs sponsorship of the annual student prize, for the most outstanding student in the Diploma of Project Management.

For further details, please contact Michael Young , Councillor - Education & Certification.
