Postgraduate Diploma in Business Management About the programme
The Postgraduate Diploma is QCA accredited at level 7 and comprises five units:
- Strategic Business Management and Planning
- Organisational Resource Management
- Management of Financial Resources and Performance
- Leadership and Change Management
- Corporate Management in Action (integrative case study assessment)
The programme does not carry study manuals. This is because students at level 7 are expected to be capable of carrying out their own research and reading, which is the practice at Masters level.
AssessmentEach unit requires two pieces of assessed work:
- an examination (marked externally by ABE); and
- an assignment (marked internally by the college and scrutinised by ABE)
To pass the unit requires a pass mark of 40% or above in both pieces of assessed work.
For example, achieving a mark of 70% in one piece of work and 35% in the other will not qualify for a pass.
The examination scripts are marked externally by ABE. The assignment is marked by the college using marking criteria provided by ABE.
Re-sits of any assessment that is not passed will be permitted.
