is MBA (top-up) course allows you to achieve an MBA qualification in up to six months, -up) starts in September, January and May?

No, the Level 7 Diploma itself does not confer an MBA. It is a 120-credit master’s-level qualification regulated by Ofqual (603/2181/7) that prepares you for an MBA top-up. The top-up is a separate university module, typically requiring three to six months of additional study after completing the diploma. Start dates for the diploma are flexible, often including September, January, and May intakes, allowing working managers to align study with business cycles. The six-month timeline usually refers to the fast-track diploma completion, not the full MBA award. Always verify specific university top-up entry requirements and duration, as these vary by partner institution and are distinct from the OTHM qualification.
