The MBA programme consists of three distinct but interconnected stages:

• Certificate - The modern enterprise and business environment – how does it work?
  The Certificate phase aims to develop a resource-based view of the business enterprise and examine how value is created, including the impact of the wider business environment on the enterprise’s value creation activities.
• Diploma - Preparing for tomorrow – what needs to change?
  In the Diploma stage the focus shifts to consider a manager’s role in developing enterprises that consider internal and external contexts, with the goal for them to create sustainable value.
• Masters – Management in action – bringing about change  
  The Masters phase of the programme focuses more specifically on particular sectors and/or roles, allowing you the chance to complete a comprehensive general management programme or choose to specialise in artificial intelligence or healthcare management. The emphasis will be on exploring, critically evaluating and applying a range of sector/ role specific models and concepts within a practice setting. The course provides you with the opportunity to clarify and explore your career goals as you progress and encourages reflection on how your goals might be met.
