Pacchetto di tripla qualifica MBA

Do you want a Master’s Degree? Would you like to obtain three professional certificates in doing so? Moreover, would you like to achieve some of them partway through your studies? You can with our special MBA triple qualification package, which combines a postgraduate Level 7 Diploma in Business Management with Chartered Manager status from the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) and ultimately an MBA from a UK University.

There are three stages, each of which results in a qualification:

• Postgraduate Level 7 Diploma in Business Management, awarded by Learning Resource Network (LRN) an Ofqual (UK Government) recognised Awarding Organisation (exam board)
• Chartered Manager status from the UK’s highly respected Chartered Management Institute (CMI) on the basis of your Level 7 Diploma qualification
• MBA (top-up) through the advanced entry, as a Level 7 Diploma holder, with a UK University

The qualifications are taught through classroom block teaching coupled with online support. You study the Diploma stage in five three-day blocks in the classroom followed by six weeks online. The MBA stage is completed online.

The UK University MBA will give you exactly the same physical certificate as the equivalent taught on the University’s campus in the UK. On successful completion, you will be invited to the University’s graduation ceremony.

This MBA package is particularly suited to individuals who want to obtain professional qualifications while still working.

Entry requirements

You must comply with the entry requirements for the Diploma and then for the MBA. The Diploma must be passed first before you can progress to Chartered Manager and the MBA:

Diploma

For learners who have recently been in education and training the entry profile is likely to include:

• A first degree in business, the management or related subjects or a level 6 qualification, for example, a Diploma in Management;
• Other equivalent international qualifications.

Learners may also have work experience. Mature learners may present a more varied profile of their achievement that is likely to include at least five years extensive relevant work experience (paid and/or unpaid) with levels of responsibility, participation and/or achievement of a range of relevant professional qualifications. This may be used for recognition of prior learning (RPL).

Learners must also have an appropriate standard of English to enable them to access relevant resources and complete the unit assignments. Therefore candidates should have a speaking, listening, reading and writing ability which is commensurate to CEFR Level B2 (or equivalent).

Chartered Manager

You must have passed the LRN Level 7 Diploma in Business Management.

MBA

For the MBA (top-up) route you will be required to have:

• The LRN Level 7 Diploma in Business Management (or UK equivalent)
• An undergraduate qualification equivalent to UK Bachelors 2:2 or higher, alternatively two years’ supervisory or management work experience may be considered for candidates not meeting this requirement
• A Statement of Purpose
• Two letters of Reference/Recommendation
• A secure English language test such as IELTS 6.0 (with 5.5 in all modules) or equivalent
• A copy of your passport

What is included?

Everything you need to study is provided.

The Diploma is taught through iQualify UK’s online Teaching Zone (although blended learning/classroom block teaching is available in some countries). This contains a mixture of recorded and live lectures along with essential reading texts and exercises to support your studies.

The UK University MBA (top-up) is taught online or with a short stay on campus in the UK.

You will have a personal tutor from the iQualify UK for the Diploma stage and from the University for the MBA stage. They will support you in your studies and you can contact them if you have any questions.

All UK University, LRN registration/assessment and iQualify UK tuition fees are included.

Aims

The UK University MBA will provide you with the knowledge and skills you require to successfully run a major organisation. Chartered Manager status from the CMI shows that you are a management professional.

How do I study and how long does it take?

The two stages combined will normally take you from 12 to 18 months to complete.

The Diploma stage can be started anytime and will be completed within one year. You must successfully complete the Diploma before you can start the MBA stage or become a Chartered Manager. The MBA stage will need to be completed over approximately five months.

How is it assessed?

Diploma

All five units are each assessed by a 3,500 word written assignment which can be submitted anytime.

MBA

The MBA is assessed by a dissertation.

iQualify UK is a UK registered organisation which was founded to provide the best in education through courses and qualifications for those previously excluded on grounds of finance or the need to work rather than study. We, therefore, offer quality products at an affordable price.

Modern British Education

iQualify UK’s competitive strengths reside in a number of characteristics that are often absent in contemporary institutions:

• Best faculty
• Personal interaction
• Holistic experience
• Professional culture
• Internationally linked

Bringing together the best faculty

The iQualify UK’s faculty is a team of experts drawn from a range of institutions. We are putting the best together and will expand the faculty network as we develop.

Personal interaction

The availability to students of personal interaction with faculty members via Skype, email or telephone and the ability to view live lectures.

Offering a holistic experience

We offer a holistic experience both in environment and teaching philosophy, so as to make the learning experience well beyond the textbook level. The online environment supports a teaching philosophy that encourages learning through discourse between students and faculty, and among students themselves. For example, the online courses are designed in such a way as to promote student discussion of relevant case studies and contemporary examples.

A professional culture

iQualify UK is managed by academic and business professionals who care about their students and their education.

Strong international links

With an orientation towards international business.

These elements, coupled with our British heritage, enable us to focus the strengths of a professional network onto offering personalised service to our students.

Our Mission statement

iQualify UK’s mission is to deliver high-quality affordable education in international standard qualifications and skills, which provide both excellent content and learning experience, to students all over the world.

How we work

iQualify UK is a completely independent educational organisation, dedicated to our students. We deliver our courses mainly through following of the two methods:

• Classroom block teaching method
• Online learning method

Classroom block teaching method

Classroom block teaching combines classroom teaching with online information to give you the best of both! We, therefore, offer you a choice of study methods depending on your personal preferences. One of the main benefits though is that it enables you to study while working.

The classroom teaching is usually delivered in a block of three to five days on campus over a weekend. Each taught block will cover one of the units. You then have a period of a few weeks to undertake the research and complete your assignment before the next teaching block. This concentrated activity will give you the understanding and knowledge you need. The online element is provided through our Teaching Zone. It contains the course content, including reading material and self-assessment exercises, to support you in your studies. Thus if there is anything you don’t understand or need more details on, then you can usually find it in the Teaching Zone.

Online learning method

Online learning is the modern alternative to traditional education which offers you the chance to study from home in your own time – or from work or wherever you choose. It’s your opportunity to learn new skills and achieve your goals, we provide you with the means and the flexibility to enhance your career.

We are one of the most experienced online learning providers in the industry. We offer qualifications approved by leading professional and academic bodies so you get the assurance of a recognised qualification. By choosing the iQualify UK, you choose a flexible and affordable way to learn new or develop your existing skills and or gain additional qualifications.

Once you’ve enrolled, you will receive your login and password for the Teaching Zone, which is where you will find all your course materials and support information. We also send you the contact details for your online tutor.

Which iQualify UK Course is the right track for you?

We offer a wide range of professional accredited courses. Because everyone’s objectives and ambitions are different, we want to make sure that the course you wish to study is the right choice for you. You may already have a very clear idea of what you want or need to study. If you are unsure about what subject to take or what level to start at, considering the following points may help you make the right decision:

First, think about what you would like to learn and the reasons why. You may want to get a qualification to take your education to the next level, to get a better position at work or learn something new to fulfil a passion. Whatever your reasons and interests are, we offer a variety of courses which will help you get where you want to be. You also need to consider the amount of time you can or are willing to dedicate to your studies. We know that you could have a very busy life or that you may not have studied for a long time and want to start slowly. All our courses offer flexible learning options which will fit around you so you can study as quickly as you like or take the full study period to complete your course. Finally, it is important that you consider what your experience is when thinking about which level are you aiming to start. For some people, this is the hardest decision of all but we can help. You shouldn’t be put off aiming high, but you don’t want to take on something you will not be able to achieve. Your decision will depend on a balance of your experience, your previous education and the time you’re willing and able to put into studying.

We offer a broad range of subjects and levels and many courses don’t need any previous qualifications, so if you meet the basic requirements and think you can do it, you’re ready to go. If you still have questions, read our FAQ page or contact us.

Online Tutors

Once you have enrolled on one of our qualifications you are assigned a dedicated tutor who is a carefully selected subject expert in the field of your study. Each of our tutors has experience in teaching online courses and knows the challenges as well as advantages of online learning.

Your tutor provides you with academic support and answers any queries you may have regarding your qualification including its content and assessments. They ensure that you are fully prepared to successfully pass your assignments and exams (if applicable) by providing and marking effective revision aids such as test papers and mock exams. Your papers are all marked in a constructive manner so you know exactly where your strengths and weaknesses lie.

Your tutor is committed to supporting you in your studies and there are several ways that you will be able to contact them:

• By email: Ask questions in your own time around the clock; your tutor will respond with answers and advice within 24 hours (working days).
• Via the online chat facility: Ask your question while it’s fresh in your mind and communicates with your tutor in real-time when they are online.
• Over the phone or Skype: Contact your tutor by phone during their working hours and they will be able to help you right away.

Our students tell us that having someone there to help guide them through the material and provide support when they need it is really important with online study. The right support can make all the difference.

Note that you will only have a tutor if you are studying for a qualification; courses do not include access to a tutor (and are priced lower accordingly). If you are not sure of the difference, a qualification will have a ‘Level’ and will be from an Awarding Organisation.

Teaching Zone

All our courses and qualifications are delivered through the iQualify UK Teaching Zone. The students receive a login and password when they have completed the registration for their selected course or qualification.

Exams and Assignments

To achieve your ambition and gain the result you want, the students need to go through some form of assessment. These are usually exams and assignments for their selected courses and qualifications.
