Course Summary
The EduQual Diploma in Business Management (SCQF Level 11) is a Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) equivalent to Level 7 qualification. It is designed to meet the needs of senior/middle managers in the running of their businesses and to facilitate their progression to higher levels within their organization. Managers need to be aware of issues, able to analyze their potential outcomes and consequences and decide how to react. They do not have to be experts in all areas of business but they need to possess a general awareness of what specialist facilities and services exist, and how they can assist in carrying out that role. The program includes contemporary topics reflecting key issues within the 21st-century business environment, as well as the latest developments in management research.
The program has been produced to conform to the requirements of the RQF, the SCQF, the National Occupational Standards for Management and Leadership (NOS), and the relevant Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) subject benchmark statements.
