The Professional Development Certificate (PDC) is an additional personal development pathway available to every BBus student, across all campuses. Recognising the potential that extra-curricular activity has for student development and employability, the PDC involves the voluntary completion of a sequence of non-accredited extra-curricular activities over each year of the degree, designed to further enhance the soft skills essential to future success together with the competencies valued by prospective employers.

Editor's Notes
- Introducing Pebble Pad into our 3 year business degree commences with an induction presentation during orientation week. Several 1st year subjects have embedded workbooks and blogs into assessment items. 2nd year students continue to build their assets and begin to develop folio pages. Final year students complete their core WIL subject where they produce a full ePortfolio.
- WIL experiences in the BBus escalate from low risk opportunities involving observation and simulation in first year to completion of one of three capstone WIL subjects in the final. The Professional Internship option provides students with an opportunity to extend their learning experiences from the classroom into the workplace by completing 100hrs supervised work experience with an approved employer.
- Internship students also source an advertisement for a real job that would be suitable for them to apply for upon graduation and create a CV ePortfolio which includes a cover letter, employment and education history, and skills based pages which provide evidence of meeting the selection criteria.

- PebblePad is used to both help scope out the project proposal and present final project outcomes
- Students who choose to enroll in the multi disciplinary Project work together in groups combined with members from the various majors in the degree to to produce a practical outcome for real project sourced from an industry partner
- Students are provided with a customized project proposal workbook which provides instructions on how to clarify the project organization and scope, complete an action plan including a gantt chart and project risk management. Importantly students prepare and link to their project organization section, a skills based ePortfolio which identifies and evidences their skills relevant to successful completion of the proposed project.

- Final project outcomes for both subjects are presented through a project ePortfolio which has pages covering introduction and background to the project, overview of the issue or problem addressed, project methodology and management (including links to meeting agendas and minutes for the multi-disciplinary project subject) and summary of key outcomes – including links to final project outcome documents provided to the employer or industry partner. These portfolios are also used as the basis for oral presentations.
