Geraldton campus - Dual qualification
Get the most out of your studies by completing two qualifications in the same amount of time as completing one.
Why enrol in a dual qualification?
You can never be too prepared for the workforce, and what better way than becoming dual qualified! Completing a Certificate III in both Business & Tourism gives you an advantage for the future, and only requires you to complete an additional four units. Best of all it also works out more affordable than doing the Certificate III in Business on it’s own. For more information see the below Geraldton Campus schedule or download the course flyer.
