Emergency and Disaster Management (Diploma)
Victoria, Australia.
Post Graduate Diploma
The Graduate Diploma in Emergency and Disaster Management has been developed to meet the training needs of the strategic planners in emergency services, industry and communities by providing broad skills in the professional area of emergency and disaster management. It will build upon the framework established in the Graduate Certificate in Emergency and Disaster Management and will develop depths of knowledge and planning skills in specific areas such as logistics, evacuation and the review of emergencies and disasters. This will allow students to develop an applied strategic approach to emergency management. To complete the graduate diploma students will undertake a supervised project within an industry setting to allow them to apply their skills and knowledge. The program provides participants with a regional, national and international perspective on disaster management, based around the Australian/New Zealand standard on Risk Management (AS/NZS 4360:2004). This is a postgraduate programme accredited by Swinburne University of Technology and delivered by Swinburne's TAFE (Technical and Further Education) Division. All graduates will receive a Swinburne University of Technology award.
