BSB40320 is the nationally recognised Certificate IV in Entrepreneurship and New Business. It prepares you for work as a corporate services manager. It has been the current version on the national register since 2020, when it replaced BSB42518 and BSB42618. Employers posted about 627 corporate services manager jobs in June 2026, down 6.9% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Certificate IV in Entrepreneurship and New Business are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035. Job ads in June 2026 were down 6.9% on a year earlier, 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.

Get Course maps BSB40320 to its occupations using the register’s own outcome wording, shown with ANZSCO codes (here, 1321) so the mapping can be checked. Job advertisement counts come from the Jobs and Skills Australia Internet Vacancy Index and count online ads, not vacancies filled. Enrolment counts come from NCVER Total VET Activity and count people in training, not completions. Outcome benchmarks marked “typical” are medians computed by Get Course across all Certificate IVs in the same NCVER collection; they are derived figures, not official NCVER benchmarks. Funding rows appear only after verification against the official state program list.
