We adopt a student-centric approach, ensuring that the needs and priorities of our students are at the heart of everything we do.

Acknowledging the busy schedules of professional students, this part-time, wholly online course offers a state-of-the-art flexible online learning environment, allowing students to balance their studies with their personal and professional commitments. This includes a carefully considered blend of live and asynchronous learning components, enabling students to learn at their own pace and access course materials at any time, on any device.

We pride ourselves on offering personalised support to students throughout their learning journey. Many of our learners are returning to education after a significant gap so the course includes a comprehensive induction, guidance on academic writing and study and regular feedback. This helps students overcome barriers to learning and fosters a sense of belonging and engagement within their group.

Throughout the course, students will engage in:

  • Weekly online synchronous tutorials
  • Stimulating weekly activities
  • Tutor-moderated discussion forums
  • Interactive case studies
  • Reflective exercises
  • Online examinations

3e

The course recruits 3 cohorts per year, with approximately 40 students in each cohort.

Students are allocated to groups of approximately 20 based on their preference for tutorial times.
