The Graduate Diploma of Business in Global Hotel Leadership is an entry pathway into the Master of Business in Global Hotel Leadership. It provides an introduction to advanced study in contemporary leadership techniques as they apply to the global hotel and hospitality sectors.

The Graduate Diploma of Business in Global Hotel Leadership develops business applied skills to support graduates with their leadership careers in contemporary global hotel industries.

Through an industry-led, applied curriculum, students gain an understanding of relevant theories and concepts and allows them to connect with real world problems and issues through a range of authentic, industry-connected, assessment tasks. These assessments provide an applied context for students’ learning and a pathway for further learning. The curriculum is built on hotel leadership/management principles that enable students to study in their chosen career path within hotel organisations and their specialised departments. It is anticipated that students who successfully complete the Graduate Diploma will move into the Master of Business in Global Hotel Leadership where they will be exposed to a series of higher level, self-management approaches to learning within the hotel context.
