Students may not have these essential skills due to not having studied particular subjects while at high school, returning to study after a break or having studied in a different culture. Students without these core skills should complete COM00207 - Communication in Organisations before or concurrently with MNG10247. Bachelor of Business and Bachelor of Business Administration students without these core skills should also consider enrolling in EDU10010 - Language and Learning in your Discipline.
