Course programme

Over 10 modules you will learn from experts in the field, who will guide you through the full cycle of an operation, the key disciplines involved, and what it takes to be a successful operations manager. Although no previous knowledge is required for this course, it is especially valuable if you’ve already had experience in operations and want to progress your career into a management role.

What Is Operations Management?

Operations Management is one area that can be applied to any and all businesses and business sectors, although it’s often the larger businesses and organisations that have someone in the formal role of ‘operations manager’ to control and organise its core function/purpose.

Invest in this operations management diploma course and you’ll start your learning with an introduction to general management principles and the field of operations management, and then each module after this will drill down into specific areas. Topics include supply chain management, complying with legal regulations, managing staff, and cost management. It’s an affordable way to get a thorough grounding in the subject, and a solid step towards a career in operations management.

How Will I Benefit From Operations Management Training?

Whether you already have experience in an operations role, or want to move into operations management, you will benefit from the content of this course. As an e-learning programme, it offers flexibility, so you can fit study around working in your current role. Businesses who wish to invest in training for their staff will also find this course to be a good value and convenient option.

The ten modules of this diploma are designed to give a general overview of the job of an operations manager and the different disciplines involved, but they also go a step further with very specific learning that's relevant to this role. At one point you might be looking at the different stages of a supply chain, the next you’ll become familiar with documents such as balance sheets and asset registers.

Complete the course and the final test and you’ll be able to demonstrate an understanding of general operations, as well as more specific skills and technical knowledge.
