GRADUATE DIPLOMA OF MANAGEMENT (LEARNING) COURSE CANCELLATION: URGENT OPTIONS FOR AFFECTED STUDENTS

The Australian Government has announced the suspension and cancellation of CRICOS registration for the BSB80120 Graduate Diploma of Management (Learning)- GDML. From 5 October 2026, international students will no longer be able to enrol in or commence this program. CoEs issued to students who have not commenced by this date will also be cancelled. If your current or future study plan includes the GDML, it is important to act now.
EMK Global may be able to assist you with the following options:
Commence the GDML through one of the additional September or early October 2026 intakes, subject to eligibility, availability and commencement before 5 October 2026.
Transfer to a suitable Bachelor’s or Master’s degree that aligns with your academic background, career goals and student visa requirements.
Continue with your existing eligible course and, where appropriate, apply for a new student visa to help maintain your lawful study pathway and reduce the risk of visa complications.
Students who have already commenced the GDML before 5 October 2026 may continue studying and complete the course with their current provider.
Each student’s circumstances are different. Changing courses, receiving a new CoE or lodging a new visa application does not automatically protect an existing visa from cancellation. Professional assessment is essential before taking any action.
📩 Contact EMK Global as soon as possible for an individual assessment and assistance in selecting the most suitable study and visa pathway.
