The CLET BSB80320 Graduate Diploma of Strategic Leadership is a powerful Nationally Recognised Qualification offered by CLET via Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for people who can provide evidence to show they have applied advanced knowledge and skills in a strategic leadership and management role.

RPL at this level rewards those who have made autonomous decisions and used initiative and judgement to plan and implement a range of leadership and management functions in a variety of contexts and who have held positions of responsibility and accountability for personal outputs and for the work or function of others.

The recognition of prior learning process conducted by CLET assessors will search for evidence of the ability to use cognitive and creative skills to review, critically analyse, consolidate and synthesise knowledge, in order to generate ideas and provide solutions to complex problems. The RPL assessment process will need applicants to demonstrate the use of communication skills to support an understanding of theoretical concepts and the ability to transfer knowledge and ideas to others.

For those from the military, police, emergency services, Federal, State, Territory and Local Government agencies and many security organisations suitable to apply for this qualification via RPL, CLET have compiled comprehensive evidence guides to assist the recognition of the most suitable personnel from these organisations, without the need for you to provide confidential and classified information to be successful.
