A smarter start to business—no ATAR required. Start with practical, competency-based training in the BSB50120 Diploma of Business (UniTrack), then progress into CQUniversity’s Bachelor of Business with articulated credit (advanced standing) where eligible.

About this Course:

UniTrack is a practical, skills-first pathway that starts with the Diploma of Business at Charlton Brown—using small-group coaching and competency-based assessment to turn business theory into habits you can use from day one. The course is designed for people who want to step into business with confidence and capability, not just theory. You’ll learn how organisations actually run—planning and coordinating work, supporting teams, working with budgets and basic financials, using everyday business technology, and improving the way things get done. You’ll also choose from one of nine specialisation streams—Leadership, Business Operations, Organisational Development, Compliance, Business Development, Digital & Data, Information Management, Procurement, or Evaluations—to give your study a clear professional focus. On successful completion, you may be eligible to progress into a Bachelor of Business with articulated credit (advanced standing), subject to university entry requirements and credit approval at the time of application.

What You'll Learn:

  • Develop critical thinking in others to support better decisions.
  • Plan and manage budgets and financial plans, and interpret basic financials.
  • Coordinate business operations and manage resources to keep delivery on track.
  • Use everyday business technology to support workplace tasks and processes.
  • Develop workplace sustainability policies and procedures that work day to day.
  • Lead workplace communication with clarity and stakeholder alignment.
  • Select a specialisation stream to build focused capability (Leadership, Business Operations, Organisational Development, Compliance, Business Development, Digital & Data, Information Management, Procurement, Evaluations).

Franchezca Israel

Words cannot express accurately enough how grateful I am for having Fanny as my trainer during most of my Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care. The level of her service delivery was above and beyond my expectations, as well as her ethics and the knowledge and skill set she kindly shared with her students, always with a positive attitude, broad smile and gentleness that are her trademark.

Angelica Okawa

Teachers and general staff are always willing to attend our needs, tutoring, questions or even basic documents from reception. The campus is organised and clean. Library, learning materials and even the kitchen are always available for student’s use. I feel comfortable studying here and supported by my teachers. Having chosen to study Childcare at Charlton Brown has being a great decision. Thank you Fanny and Fei for your constant support both in theory assessments!
