are for success with hands-on computing experience and real-world tech skills?

The premise is incorrect. The Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits) focuses on strategic direction, governance, and organisational capability, not hands-on computing or technical IT skills. It is designed for senior managers developing executive leadership competencies, not technical practitioners. While digital strategy is a component, the curriculum prioritises stakeholder mapping, risk appetite, and financial acumen over coding, system administration, or software engineering. Learners seeking real-world tech skills should consider specialised IT certifications or computer science degrees. This qualification prepares professionals for board-level decision-making, leveraging technology as a strategic enabler rather than a technical subject. It aligns with RQF Level 7 master’s level outcomes, emphasising critical analysis and strategic planning within complex organisational contexts, distinct from vocational technical training.
