Details of courses offered by LGTA

Double Diploma: BSB50420 Diploma of Leadership and Management & BSB50120 Diploma of Business (Jul-Sep 2025 Intake)*

Overview: To offer the Dual Diploma, we have combined our BSB50420-Diploma of Leadership and Management and BSB50120- Diploma of Business (Operations) as several units are common across the two qualifications. So this is a great opportunity to complete two qualifications together with only three additional units, compared to doing the two separately with twelve units each.

Future study options: On completion of this course, you may be eligible to do

BSB60120 – Advanced Diploma of Business, BSB60420 – Advanced Diploma of Leadership and Management or other courses at the Advanced Diploma level at other training providers.

Course structure: To be eligible to get the double diploma, you need to complete all the core and pre-selected elective units listed in BSB50420-Diploma of Leadership and Management and BSB50120- Diploma of Business (Operations). Please click on the links for more details about the two courses.

Delivery period: Obtaining a diploma typically requires 1-2 years of learning. Since this is a double diploma with three additional units to be completed, this has been set up to be delivered and completed over 70 weeks, in comparison to the 56 weeks for doing these courses individually. This includes the holidays over Christmas and New Year.

One month has been allocated for each of the 15 units. For every unit, the following training and learning activities need to be completed by the students during the specified period. A detailed session plan will be provided after enrolling in the course.

  1. Training Session- One full day (9.00 AM to 5.00PM)
  2. Mandatory Academic Support Session- Two sessions of two hours each per unit
  3. Guided, individual and workplace learning
  4. Assessments

Academic support sessions: The students are required to attend the two mandatory support sessions of two hours each for every unit. Additional optional support sessions can also be organised for the learners on a need basis.

Mode of delivery: This course will be delivered in a blended mode comprising 15 full days (9.00AM to 5.00PM) of face-to-face sessions. The academic support sessions will be delivered online.

Assessments:  For successfully completing the requirements of this course, the learners will be required to complete a number of assessments that will primarily include written questions, research reports and projects. The trainer & assessor will discuss the assessments in the class. The students will need an average of 6-8 hours per week to complete all the assessments by the end of 70 weeks of the course.
