10938NAT is the nationally accredited Diploma of Facilities Management. It prepares you for work as a facilities manager. It is current on the national register, with no earlier version recorded. Employers posted about 903 facilities manager jobs in June 2026, down 1.9% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Diploma of Facilities Management are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035. The official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage and enrolments are falling. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for facilities managers are holding steady. About 903 facilities manager jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 1.9% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 10,400 job ads, while 240 people were training in the course nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
