Summary
This is for you if... you want to study for the first stage of our AMBA-accredited MBA. Our Postgraduate Certificate provides the knowledge, skills and an internationally recognised qualification to advance your career in management.
The Postgraduate Certificate in Business Administration allows you to take the first steps in pursuing a Master of Business Administration (MBA) programme whilst keeping your future study options open. It is ideal if you are unable to commit to undertaking the MBA in one go.
Studying online with recorded lectures and live seminars means you can study anytime and anywhere. You can supplement your studies with face-to-face learning at our residential workshops and the annual Leicester Masterclass, held at Brookfield, our new £16 million School of Business campus.
You will be taught by academic staff who combine teaching and research and who bring the latest knowledge and skills to their teaching. Studying in small groups allows extensive opportunities for teamwork and building your professional networks with tutors and international business leaders.
The programme takes 12 months to complete and consists of three modules. You will start with a three-week induction into your studies before moving on to focus on people management, leadership and developing your 'soft skills'. In module two you will combine the areas of entrepreneurship and innovation, marketing and operations so you can familiarise yourself with the process of product and service development, from inception to execution. Your Learning and Professional Development Portfolio runs across each module. In your portfolio you will collect evidence of your knowledge and skill development on the programme. You will evidence this through reflective exercises undertake in your modules and is an excellent way to demonstrate your achievements to current or prospective employers.
Flexible, distance learning study allows you to continue to work whilst gaining a valuable qualification and offers a great return on investment. Your team and company will benefit from your newly gained knowledge and skills and you can apply real-world situations and problems to your assignments, given you the opportunity to look at topics relevant to your work and professional career aspirations.
Upon successful completion of your Postgraduate Certificate you can progress onto the Leicester Global MBA Programme.
