Course overview

Every organisation, from a local charity to a global brand, needs people who can plan, lead and solve problems, and that is exactly what this subject trains you to do. You will learn through case studies, group projects and assignments based on real organisations, building confidence in analysis, presentation and decision-making.

A Certificate of Higher Education is a one-year, Level 4 qualification and a recognised award in its own right. Successful students can usually continue into the second year of a related degree.
