Professional Programmes / Short Courses

Basic Internet Marketing

Hamilton City Campus
Internet marketing has become a critical tool in the modern marketing suite. Here is where mastery begins. In this course, you will get well on the way to using internet marketing to grow and develop your business or your career. More than just a ‘tips and tricks’ introduction to internet marketing, this course will show how online business is changing the face of modern enterprise, and how it can be used to increase profits in virtually every business.

Building self esteem & Assertiveness skills (Career Development Training)

Hamilton City Campus
Find ways to access and use the powerful ‘inner you’. It sounds like a contradiction in terms. If we lack self-esteem how can we set out from that point to improve it? There are some surprisingly simple techniques that can help us re-align our thinking towards healthier and more positive goals. Absolutely essential in daily life, it’s also important to our business success.

Business Writing that Works (Career Development Training)

Hamilton City Campus
You can write more quickly, more informatively and more persuasively. For some of us, business writing is the written equivalent of public speaking. It doesn’t need to be that bad. Good business writing can be developed through a change of approach. Effective written business communication is not just a series of tips, tricks and rules – it’s about approaching the exercise with a new mindset.

Change Management: How to deal with it (Human Resources Training)

Hamilton City Campus
Learn to embrace change as an enjoyable opportunity for growth. Change is often a cause for fear or discomfort. However, it is an essential part of human development that we can not only learn to deal with, but also to embrace. In business, people can experience change as a threat to their position or their established way of doing things. However, it can be celebrated as a positive. In this course, you will see change as an opportunity for self-motivation and innovation.

Communication Strategies (Career Development Training)

Hamilton City Campus
Develop communication strategies that will see you regularly reaching your goals. Communication is fundamental to business success. And have you noticed that some people seem to be great at it, while others are not so great? In this course we investigate the secrets to being a great communicator. As a result, your own communication will become more effective and you will achieve your desired goals more consistently.

Customer Service Training: Critical Elements (Career Development Training)

Hamilton City Campus
Give your customers more reasons to love you. Great customer service is essential for the success of any business. But how do you instill that philosophy in your employees and colleagues? And how do you give them the tools to know how to translate good intentions into an outstanding customer experience? This course will show you how.

Design Thinking Boot Camp

Hamilton City Campus
This challenging group experience, working with adventurous thinkers and experienced designers, will launch you into the world of ‘human-centred design’.

Interpersonal Conflict

Hamilton City Campus
Conflict is often unpleasant. Sometimes it is necessary. It usually escalates faster than it subsides. There are different conflict resolution styles suited to different situations. Whether two employees are fighting for the desk next to the window, or one person wants the heat on and another doesn't, an immediate response to conflict is needed. In this course, we’ll train you in being the person who can bring resolution to situations where resolution seems unlikely.

Manage Projects

Hamilton City Campus
“Project” is a deceptively simple word that often hides great complexity and multiple challenges. To successfully manage projects, it’s important to understand what constitutes a project, the various phases that projects typically go through, and what are the most important things to attend to at each phase. This course will look at a project from all angles to increase its manageability and provide you with the tools to lead projects with confidence.

Marketing and Sales (Supervisors & Managers)

Hamilton City Campus
Marketing is not advertising. So what is it? Good marketing not only makes the task of selling easier, it can also lower its cost. That’s why smart business people don’t think of marketing and sales as two separate things, but more like two sides of the same coin. In this interactive course, we investigate how marketing and sales contribute to one another, what their respective roles are and – most importantly – how you can better do both to increase sales and profitability.

Marketing for Small Business

Hamilton City Campus
Marketing a small business is different than marketing a larger company. You have to do more with less, for a start. And often the person who manages the company will also drive the marketing. Here is a course that gives you what you need to know without swamping you with unnecessary information or pretending you don’t have other things to attend to. Result: you’ll be able to achieve marketing success without blowing your budget or working every hour of the day.

MS SharePoint Fundamentals

Hamilton City Campus
Groupware manages collective work by different users. This is where you and your group learn to achieve your goals. Specialised workgroup software gives people in different locations the structure and means to collaborate, exchange ideas, debate, decide and coordinate activities. This course will teach you how to take full advantage of this software, also known as collaborative tools.

MS SharePoint Power User

Hamilton City Campus
Get results with your team, wherever you are. You’ve mastered SharePoint, and now it’s time to master how to manage SharePoint sites. This SharePoint Power User training is just the ticket.

MS Word Power User

Hamilton City Campus
Almost everyone in business is familiar with MS Word and what it can do. But almost no one really appreciates its full features – and how amazingly useful they can be. In this course, you’ll go from a normal MS Word user to a Power User. Someone who can create fantastic looking, easy to read documents, and do it in a surprisingly short time.

Power BI

Hamilton City Campus
Earn your masters in data management, with new MS software. Power BI Desktop is a powerful visual data exploration and interactive reporting tool. It provides a free-form canvas for drag-and-drop exploration of your data and an extensive library of interactive visualisations, while streamlining report creation and publishing to the Power BI service. This course will introduce you to the basics of Power BI, giving you and your business more access to usable business intelligence than ever before.

Presenting with Confidence

Hamilton City Campus
Speaking in public is said to be the greatest of all fears. But it doesn’t have to be. It’s not easy for many of us to speak before a group, but this course will cover the fundamentals that will enable you to deliver a presentation more confidently. And confidence in this area will in all likelihood give you more confidence in other areas.

Selling Smarter (Sales & Marketing Training)

Hamilton City Campus
To sell clever, you need new ways of operating. Sales are just not enough in the current business market – they can fluctuate wildly due to factors that are hard to identify. You need a ‘sales identity’ that sets you ahead of your competitors – and ensures customer loyalty when other businesses are struggling. In this course, you will learn techniques for working ‘clever’ rather than just ‘harder’.

SODA: Business Models - Entrepreneurship

Hamilton City Campus
Managing your business differently can increase your profit. Find out how. Using different business models enables you to view your business from many angles. That’s powerful, as it can keep you from getting stuck with an single point of view, missing other important things. In this course, we’ll investigate a range of business ‘canvases’ or business development templates, and how each one relates to the stage of your business – and how you can use them to develop a strong future for your enterprise.

SODA: Market Validation - Entrepreneurship

Hamilton City Campus
Entrepreneurs are strong at generating exciting and unpredictable new ideas. Testing whether there is a market for those ideas often takes a different mindset – one that’s methodical and systematic. In this course, you’ll deepen your capacity to explore and test business ideas through the ‘Validation Model’. You will learn the theory behind this method of business management and try a hands-on exercise, so you can use your learning to forward your business.

Strategies for Workplace Relationships

Hamilton City Campus
Business and personal success take great relationship skills. Strengthen yours here. To run your business successfully you need excellent management and interpersonal skills. This course will help you develop powerfully for flourishing workplace relationships, strong career pathways, and ongoing professional development. You will cover techniques from time management to leadership styles, and explore the role of emotional intelligence in powerful management.
