Overview of the ATHE’s Level 7 Qualifications in Strategic Management

These qualifications have been developed to conform to the requirements of the Ofqual Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), to meet the requirements of higher education and employers and to meet the needs of learners.

The aims of these qualifications are to develop knowledge and understanding in a range of subject areas which are pertinent to the development of individuals specifically seeking career progression and/or working towards middle/senior management roles, and to learners progressing in higher education towards Master’s level/Level 7 outcomes. The qualifications also focus on the development of those study and transferable skills necessary for learners to develop and grow both personally and in the working environment.

These qualifications are, therefore, designed to provide:

  • maximum flexibility with differently sized Level 7 qualifications covering a number of relevant strategic management areas and pathways reflecting a variety of learner’s needs
  • opportunities for learners to develop a breadth of knowledge and understanding of subject matter related to strategic management topics and issues, but also
  • core unit choice and pathways/optional units in particular specialisms that are directly related to learners’ current responsibilities or that meet a particular interest and support career development
  • development of underpinning skills, personal qualities and behaviours/attitudes essential for successful performance in study and working life
  • a strong base for continued learning and a desire to constantly develop as an individual, further improving knowledge, understanding and skills.

This suite of Level 7 Strategic Management Diplomas is designed to enable learners to both deepen their knowledge and understanding of Strategic Management and customise it to reflect their own learning needs. A mandatory selection of core units underpins each qualification outcome meaning that learners have a firm foundation to their study. However, each qualification offers a number of pathways meaning that learners can also move
