is done via submission of assignment?

Yes, assessment is conducted exclusively through the submission of written assignments. There are no formal examinations, vivas, or oral presentations required for the Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership Online – MBA Top-Up Route (120 Credits). This approach aligns with the needs of working managers, allowing you to demonstrate strategic direction and organisational capability through applied, evidence-based work. Each unit requires a substantial written response, typically ranging from 3,000 to 4,000 words, where you must analyse real-world business challenges, map stakeholder interests, and propose governance frameworks. You will submit these documents digitally via the learning platform. The focus is on critical evaluation and strategic decision-making rather than rote memorisation, ensuring the output reflects board-level reasoning. This method supports flexible study while maintaining rigorous Ofqual-regulated standards for master’s-level competence.
