are in Strategic Management and carry 120 credits, which are essential for the MBA top-up?

No, the Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits) is not a single unit but a complete qualification comprising multiple distinct units that collectively total 120 credits. These credits are essential for the MBA top-up because they provide the master’s-level academic rigor required by UK universities for final-year entry. The diploma structure ensures learners demonstrate strategic direction, governance, and organisational capability across varied modules rather than a single subject area. This 120-credit accumulation satisfies the academic credit requirement for progression, allowing graduates to bypass the first two years of a standard MBA and complete only the final dissertation or project year. It is a regulated OTHM qualification, ensuring recognition within the UK qualifications framework.
