is accredited by UK OfQual - the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator in England?

Yes, the qualification is regulated by Ofqual, the Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator. However, it is crucial to distinguish between regulation and accreditation. Ofqual regulates the qualification framework and ensures the awarding body, OTHM, meets strict quality standards. OTHM is the actual accrediting body that grants the Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits). This distinction matters for international recognition and university top-up eligibility. The qualification number 603/2181/7 is listed on the Ofqual register, confirming its status as a regulated RQF Level 7 qualification, equivalent to master’s level study in the UK.
