Certificate of Higher Education in Business Administration (CertHE)
The Certificate of Higher Education (CertHE) in Business Administration is a qualification in its own right that also provides an entry route to degree-level study. It is ideal if you are ready to study for a degree but do not have the qualifications usually required for entry. Our CertHE provides a foundation for advanced and independent study through establishing a common platform of essential knowledge and skills. Through study of the CertHE, you will gain an understanding of the discipline of management, with emphasis on historical, political, cultural, ethical and institutional forces shaping modern business. You will also develop the ability to evaluate theory, research and practice within management, and gain valuable skills in information technology, numeracy and research.
Application deadline: 30 September Registration deadline: 21 October
You study four courses to earn the CertHE qualification. The taught programme consists of the following compulsory courses:
- Foundations of quantitative methods for sustainable organisations
- Interpreting management, market and consumption
- Information systems and organisation studies
- International business and accounting
When you graduate from the programme, you will have a sound basis for careers in business, management, consultancy and beyond. Successful completion can also allow students to progress to a higher level award in the subject area, such as the BSc.
