Course Overview
Change is inevitable, but it’s never easy.
Become a source of value for tomorrow as you gain skills to navigate ambiguity in your organisation and to successfully lead change as an iterative and innovative process, rather than a reactive process.
VU Online’s Graduate Certificate in Change Management is designed for tomorrow’s leaders who can drive change and adjust quickly to new business conditions.
You’ll also have the option to upgrade to our online MBA to further build on your leadership skills, as the units you complete in your Graduate Certificate will be credited, or stacked on, to your MBA or Graduate Diploma in Change Management.
