Course Structure

Learners will be invited to attend lectures and workshops that will introduce the subject matter. Learners must complete four units successfully and achieve 40 credits before the Diploma can be issued.



Entry Requirements

The Qualifications have been designed to be accessible without artificial barriers that restrict access and progression. Entry to the Qualifications will be through centre interview, and the candidates will be expected to hold the following -

  • Learners who have demonstrated some ability and possess Qualifications at Level 3, for example, ‘A’ Levels or vocational awards;
  • Learners who have spent some time in an organisational role and shown they have capability and drive to develop
  • Learners seeking further professional development and gain work-related skills and know-how.

Assessment

Each unit within the qualification is assessed through an assignment.

Assignment tasks will be written in a way to make them realistic ‘work-related’ tasks wherever possible. Knowledge, understanding and application will need to be demonstrated by Learners. Original thought, problem solving and recommendations on actions will also be asked for from the Learner where appropriate for the unit. Intellectual rigour will be expected appropriate to the level of the Qualification.

Assignments will contain a question strand for each of the given unit’s Learning Outcomes. The assignment tasks will address the LO (Learning Outcome) and AC (Assessment Criteria) requirements. Within assignments there will always be requirements for Learner’s to engage with important and relevant theory that underpins the subject area. The assignment questions will require Learners to draw on real organisations to illustrate their answers.

A mark of at least 40% is required for a unit to be passed and the credit achieved. This same pass mark applies to all units that contribute to the Diploma. Once a unit pass mark has been agreed by and credit awarded, the student may not be re-assessed in that unit.

EBMA undertakes external moderation to monitor the assessment and internal moderation processes within the centre to make sure the assessment remains fit for purpose and that the assessment process and practices by the centre continue to meet EBMA’s centre recognition requirements.
