As this is a distance learning course, there is flexibility built in to suit the pace required by the learner. It is recommended that learners spend six weeks on each unit, including completion of the unit assignment, hence, we propose a 24-week study programme, and you will be provided with a suggested weekly timetable.
We do, however, allow learners up to 48 weeks for completion, in recognition of ‘mitigating circumstances’ and the need to resubmit assignments (learners are allowed up to three attempts at each assignment).
Each unit is assessed by one written assignment of approximately 3,500-4,500 words.

On successful completion of this Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Practice course, you may ‘subject to senior management experience’ progress on to a CMI Level 8 Strategic Direction and Leadership course (equivalent to a Doctorate in Management), or alternatively a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) or a Master’s Degree in Management and Leadership. You may also be eligible to apply for Chartered Membership of the CMI (CMgr MCMI).
