By completing this course, you will receive a verifiable digital badge issued by AGSM, certifying your achievement.
The Australian Graduate School of Management (AGSM) will formally recognise your commitment to professional development and lifelong learning with the Certificate in Executive Management and Development (CEMD). The CEMD is a flexible program that allows you to build your leadership capabilities through stackable learning.
A CEMD is a unique pathway to future study that can directly contribute to accelerating the attainment of an AGSM MBA or Graduate Certificate if you choose to embark on this journey in the future. Each time you complete a short course with the AGSM, we’ll award you with CEMD points. CEMD points can be collected and stacked together to create a unique professional development pathway that works for you and your specific career goals.
Once you collect 12 points over a period of up to 4 years you will be awarded the CEMD. The CEMD is a specialised credential and can contribute to 2 course credits towards our AGSM MBA and Graduate Certificate qualifications.
This flexible model supports continuous learning and creates a recognised pathway from short courses to postgraduate qualifications at UNSW's AGSM.
