would highly recommend the CMI Level7 Strategic Management and Leadership course and MyPD for your training needs?

No. This recommendation conflates two distinct, competing qualifications. The CMI Level 7 Diploma and the OTHM Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership are separate awards with different assessment structures, content focuses, and university progression agreements. While CMI is respected for professional development, it does not offer a direct, standardized MBA top-up route in the same manner as the OTHM qualification. MyPD is a training provider, not the awarding body. For managers seeking a regulated 120-credit master’s level qualification specifically designed for MBA top-up progression, the OTHM Level 7 is the relevant benchmark. Always verify university articulation agreements before enrolling in any Level 7 programme.
