Flexible training to reinforce your practice’s workforce

UNE Partnerships has worked closely with Australian Association of Practice Management (AAPM) and the healthcare sector for 30+ years to design flexible courses and qualifications for Medical Receptionists, Medical Practice Assistants (MPA) and Practice Managers.

As our health system is under extreme pressure to provide continuing high-quality health services, there is ongoing need for service providers to ensure staff are skilled, engaged and ready to assist.

General practices and other service providers may benefit from UNE Partnerships training initiatives which aim to attract, engage and develop a skilled and qualified healthcare workforce.

Many of our courses are 100% online, meaning you do not need to leave your home or workplace to complete your studies.

1. We are excited to introduce our new Diploma of Leadership in Healthcare Practice (10820NAT).

This contemporary qualification has a strong focus on continuous improvement, customer services, patient-centred care, and emerging trends in the sector and aims to help practice managers lead successful and sustainable medical practices in an increasingly dynamic healthcare environment.
