ObjectivesThe purpose of this program is to graduate 'Learning Managers' who have a significantly different perspective and skill/knowledge base than graduates of other education masters degrees. MLM graduates will have an enhanced capacity to manage the learning of students and will be able to work collaboratively with other teaching professionals, a range of other supporting professionals and the community. The Master of Learning Management (Specialisation) offers students a number of pathways to gain credit in recognition of prior work based learning. Students who focus their studies in recognised areas approved by CQUniversity (eg, Special Education; Simulation Technology & Learning) can have this specialisation on their testamur. For further information please contact the Faculty. Students who have completed CV03 Graduate Certificate in Flexible Learning may be eligible to articulate into the Master of Learning (Specialisation) program. CV03 graduates who articulate into the MLM will receive credit for 3 MLM courses and will be required to successfully complete EDED20426 Advanced Learning Management, EDED20424 Professional Project 4 and EDED20425 Professional Project 5 to be eligible to graduate with an MLM.
Entry requirementsA Bachelor of Learning Management, Bachelor of Education or an equivalent four year qualification from a recognised university. Students may be admitted to the degree if they can satisfy the Dean of their competence to undertake the program on the basis of equivalent qualifications and/or experience.

Course description
About Learning Management
Finally, a postgraduate degree that responds to the demands of learning in the knowledge society.
Traditional postgraduate studies, with inflexible study requirements and lengthy written assignments, only add to an already overcommitted life. Educational professionals have told us they want a postgraduate program that works for them. Consequentially the Master of Learning Management will not require you to 'jump through hoops'.
The fundamental premise of the MLM is flexibility; you complete your study in a place and time of your choice on a self-selected topic that will directly contribute to your work.
Students who focus their studies in recognised areas approved by CQUniversity can have this specialisation on their testamur.
