PSP60122 is the nationally recognised Advanced Diploma of Government. It prepares you for work as a program or project administrator. It has been the current version on the national register since 2022, when it replaced PSP60116. Employers posted about 2,064 program or project administrator jobs in June 2026, up 0.7% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Advanced Diploma of Government are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. The official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for program or project administrators are holding steady. About 2,064 program or project administrator jobs were advertised online in June 2026, up 0.7% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 24,100 job ads, while 240 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
Australia's official shortage list rates contract administrators and program or project administrators as not in shortage. The 2025 Occupation Shortage List rates Contract Administrator and Program or Project Administrator as not in shortage.
