Every business needs strong, capable managers. At Toi Ohomai you can advance your study in management with our suite of applied, postgraduate management courses. You can also endorse your qualification with a specialisation in hospitality.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Management is perfect if you want to advance your scholarly research and hone your practical management skills. It mixes theoretical study with highly applied, work-based learning.
