The way we offer the Diploma in Meat Processing is changing in 2017

With declining numbers and poor completion rates we have had to re-think how we offer the Diploma of Meat Processing. So from the beginning of 2017, we are going to revert to accepting candidates as groups working to a set program. This way we hope to be able to offer closer support and guidance to assist people to progress through the program and successfully complete their Diploma.

New entrants from 2017

Candidates who wish to commence the Diploma program in 2017 will have the option of choosing from two streams.

Stream 1 will have a Leadership focus, and will commence in February 2017 – candidates can expect to take about 18 months to complete the full qualification.

Stream 2 will have a technical focus and will commence in July 2017– candidates can expect to take about 18 months to complete the full qualification.

Fees for a full Diploma program will be $12,000, payable in instalments. We hope to be able to offset these costs with scholarships, but this is still under negotiation.

What happens if I am part-way through a Diploma?

You will still be able to complete the Diploma by selecting Units from either stream and working at your own pace, as in the current program. The fees will be $1,895 per unit, as in the current program. All current students will soon receive a letter explaining their options.

What if I want to do the workshop-only option, and not enter the full Diploma?

There will still be opportunity to undertake the workshop-only option for the current $1,295 fee, if there is sufficient room in the program.
