This can be proved either by relevant academic and/or professional qualifications and/or business experience.

Throughout this online Business and Management degree, you will use sophisticated and authentic scenarios, industry employer participation events and applied case studies to critically evaluate creative and sustainable solutions to contemporary international business issues. Solutions are researched in association with key stakeholders and you will also consider cultural, legal, ethical and professional practice across a range of international contexts. This will prepare you to plan for and react to issues regularly faced by multinational organisations.
In addition to the Business and Management BSc (Hons), students will also be awarded with the CMI Level 5 Diploma in Management and Leadership upon graduation, providing successful achievement of CMI-mapped modules*:
With a CMI professional qualification on top of a bachelor’s degree, you become more marketable. A dual qualification speaks volumes to prospective employers, giving you the advantage when looking for your next career move.
Obtaining this double qualification provides various advantages to your professional career, such as CMI membership, providing you access to professional development events, networks, mentoring support, structured continuing professional development (CPD) and a jobs board showcasing the very latest management vacancies. You will also be supported in pursuit of becoming a chartered manager, a status coveted and prized by most employers.
*Please note, only the modules studied on this course are counted towards the CMI accreditation. If you have been granted an exemption for any of the modules as part of RPL (recognition of prior learning) process/progression routes, you will not qualify for the CMI diploma. Depending on the exemption, you may qualify for the CMI Level 5 Certificate or CMI Level 5 Award.
