Course Structure
The course is run on a part-time basis by The Management Centre. Classes are delivered via ‘blended learning’. Blended Learning is a unique combination of face-to-face teaching, on-line seminars and tutorials. Designed to making life easier for busy professionals, it minimises time away from the office and has less impact on the day to day operation of the business and the students’ working day. The course is structured to allow students flexibility in choosing the number of papers they wish to sit at each examination sitting.
