are taught courses which are at the same level as a Masters Program on the UK Regulated Quality Framework(RQF)?

Yes, taught courses at RQF Level 7 are formally equivalent to Master’s degree programmes within the UK Regulated Qualifications Framework. The Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits) sits at this same master’s level, ensuring parity in academic rigour and strategic depth. While a full Master’s typically comprises 180 credits, this 120-credit qualification provides the core postgraduate learning outcomes required for strategic decision-making. It is regulated by Ofqual and awarded by OTHM, offering a recognised pathway for professionals to demonstrate master’s-level capability without completing a full university degree initially. This equivalence facilitates progression to an MBA top-up at partner universities, validating your strategic management competence for senior roles.
