Diploma of Meat Processing
The Diploma of Meat Processing focuses on improving the leadership skills of participants to elevate their thinking to a higher level of work.
This develops the participant’s knowledge and practical skills to design and redevelop systems of work and support them to take on more senior management roles
inside the business.
The program is designed to get participants analysing the cause and effect of change. By the end of the program, participants will not only understand the operations,
people and culture, and financial state of the business, but also understand the impact of changes to interconnected systems.
The program supports participants to stop looking at the day-to-day running of the plant but to start planning for the future. They will develop a broader understanding of systems and how they can develop or change them to meet the longer term goals of the business.
