Flexible

The MBA programme can be completed in a minimum of 2 years and can be extended, if needed, to a maximum of 7 years. Its flexible course structure means you can take study breaks between modules, allowing you to fit the MBA around your own requirements - and for life to throw in its surprises.

You can also earn qualifications on the way: complete 60 credits and you'll get the Postgraduate Certificate in Business Administration. A further 60 credits and you'll earn the Postgraduate Diploma in Business Administration. Completing 180 credits will earn you the MBA.

The MBA is life changing as it enlightens you to take a holistic view of both professional and personal events. I was amazed how I am now able to see all types of situations with a fresh point of view.
