Gain the knowledge and tools to make better decisions immediately

Strategic Decision Making for the Public Sector Professional

IPAA Victoria’s Strategic Decision Making for the Public Sector Professional course equips you with the knowledge, skills and tools to begin making better decisions immediately.

It also provides you with a decision-making framework that can help you to avoid making bad decisions. As the environment in which public sector organisations operate becomes more competitive, complex and uncertain, the need to make effective decisions is more important than ever.

As a fully online, self-paced program, this course provides you with the flexibility to develop a life-changing skill set when and how you want to and can be listened to via audio at your convenience.

This self-paced program begins on the first business day of every month and you will be sent a link to the online platform prior to the start date.
