Certificate IV in Health Administration

In this Nationally Recognised course you will complete 12 modules that consist of 15 units of competency (nine core and six elective units).

At MAT, you don’t need to worry about a once-off pass or fail result. Our assessment methodology is competency-based, meaning we evaluate your abilities through various activities. During this course, trainers may use any or all of the following: 

• Question-based assessment with written responses. 
• Product-based assessment – e.g. creating and presenting mock reports, policies or procedures.
• Direct observation assessment – demonstrating your practical skills by engaging in simulated role play or workplace tasks.
  

Medical Administration Training (MAT) understands the importance of practical experience, so role-playing makes up some of the practical elements of your assessments. MAT believes that you can benefit from undertaking role-playing activities throughout your studies. Not only are they fun and interactive, it gives you the opportunity to collaborate with other participants such as your family, friends or colleagues.

We provide up to three attempts for each assessment to ensure your success. Our reliable trainers offer clear, written feedback to help you comprehend and improve your competencies.

Students are given a generous timeframe of up to 24 months. However, if you prefer a more self-paced option, we allow students to complete the course sooner if they wish. So, no matter your learning style, our flexible learning environment and guidance will ensure you achieve your goals.

As a distance-based online course, you can access fully accredited course material from anywhere at any time. Students can participate from their desktop computer or laptop; or some coursework may also be completed using a mobile device.
