is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute and all learners receive a KnowledgeBrief Certificate which includes CPD hours?

No. The Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits) is not accredited by the Chartered Management Institute. It is an OTHM qualification regulated by Ofqual, bearing qualification number 603/21/2181/7. While the CMI offers its own Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership, this specific OTHM route follows a distinct regulatory framework. Learners receive an OTHM certificate upon successful completion, not a CMI award. Regarding CPD, the qualification itself does not inherently grant KnowledgeBrief CPD hours unless explicitly stated by the specific training provider offering the course. Always verify CPD accreditation directly with the institution, as it is separate from the Ofqual-regulated award.
