OVERVIEW

What's it like studying business management

Awarded by Birkbeck, University of London. A practical, one-year MBA for leaders ready to master strategy and sustainability, backed by two CMI Level 7 qualifications.

"I really like the modules on my course because you can apply what you learn to your personal life. My course helped me to reflect on how I used to do things, you realise that there is a better way. Now I feel like I have the confidence to put what I'm learning in to practice. Another thing that is great about this course is that all the teachers are experienced in what they are teaching. It's not just reading books and theory, but you can actually learn how it applies to real life."
