FAQ
Things people ask before applying.
Who is this Level 7 Diploma for?
It's designed for working managers ready to step into senior leadership — typically aspiring or new heads of function, programme leads, or operations managers. You should already have either a bachelor's degree (or equivalent) or 5+ years of managerial experience, and be at least 22.
How long does it take?
Between 6 and 12 months, depending on how much time you give it each week. Most students study around 8–10 hours a week alongside full‑time work. The programme is paced, not deadline‑driven — you can accelerate or slow down within that window.
How much does it cost?
Fees vary by country of residence using World Bank income tiers. The standard fee is £3,800 (Tier 1); Tier 2 countries pay 75% (£2,850), Tier 3 pay 50% (£1,900). Payment plans of 3 or 6 instalments are available on every tier — there's no application fee.
Is it accredited?
Yes — the Diploma is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI). Completing it makes you eligible to apply for Chartered Manager status, the UK's only chartered status for managers.
Can I progress to a Master's degree?
Yes. The 120 credits transfer to a dissertation top‑up at one of LIBT's university partners, leading to a related Master's degree (typically MBA or MSc Strategic Management).
Is it fully online?
Yes. All modules are delivered online with 24/7 access to course materials, a one‑to‑one academic tutor, and twice‑monthly live tutor sessions per module (recorded if you can't attend live).
What if I don't have a bachelor's degree?
Apply on the strength of 5+ years of managerial experience. We assess applications case‑by‑case through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), and we can also reduce the workload if you already hold a relevant Level 6 or 7 qualification — by up to 50%.
