Hi Guys,

Wasnt to sure where I should post this, but hey can't hurt to ask the community...

Basically my boss wants me to do some courses in Management. Not a uni degree because obviously it would take to long and keep me out of work for awhile.

Anyone here know of or can recommend somewhere decent to do the course?

I was looking at the Australian Institute of Management and obviously TAFE but not to sure.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Cheers,

Mitch

Mitch, i recently did my Diploma of management through the Local Government Training Institute (LGTI) and it had one of those government rebates so it only cost $600 or something rather than $4k, i assume this is the sort of course you are looking to do?

The course for me was awesome, was relevant to my new position at work and has helped me greatly.....

The course was a little rushed as it was done over 7 months instead of 12 but the amount learnt was brilliant!

thanks for the replies, will have a good look at them.

Should have given some back ground information. I work for the family in a shopfitting company as I dont have a trade, i think they want me to learn the other side of the coin so to say to help them out with running everything else, if that makes sense.

Same sort of thing as me mate, family business and I needed to step up and manage staff... The courses are great if you get the right one, I was pretty happy with mine....

Worth the money in the long run and the business can claim it anyway

My family business had NO structure until I did this course, it is really really helpful if you apply yourself and if your teacher was like ours, you basically got your workplace and took it to class

I've done a few management/manager courses through work. I'm in Victoria so can't help you out.

But to be honest, most of the courses I have attended I didn't get much out of and to be honest where just common sense.

A lot of management is common sense, but it is surprising how many lack common sense and basic management ingunity and end up with high turnovers, upset clients and failed plans. Management courses are for teaching you the philosphy of management the do's and dont. Project management is very good start i did that last semester as part of my global supply chain and logistic course. You get the most learning out of case studies imo reflects reality rather then raw info, best to always try and translate how what you learnt will work in real life.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
