Flexible study means you can include this Short Course, worth the 6 credit points of a regular unit, as part of your qualification. Are you almost finished with a UNE Graduate Certificate, or Masters? Talk to your course co-ordinator to enquire about how to much this opportunity work for you.

There is almost too much data from multiple and often-complex sources – but how do you capture, analyze and communicate what you need to enhance decision-making?
