Strategic Healthcare Management

The development and implementation of a coherent corporate strategy is one of the main measures of success for an organisation. Strategy is a critical feature of the organisations wellbeing. It establishes organisational direction, service intentions and resource commitment. It is the organisations blueprint for both survival and expansion.

Understanding the nature and activities associated with strategy development and implementation is a key knowledge requirement for those in health service management. The increasing scope for local, national and international market opportunities now make this a fundamental learning and application requirement for those operating within a strategic health care role.

You will need to set aside approximately 260 hours of private study in order to accommodate the recommended learning outside of class based activities. Please ensure you have access to a computer or the internet, as several of the learning resources will be found on our virtual learning platform, including assessment submissions.
