Diploma in Business and Marketing Management – DBMM

The Diploma in Business and Marketing Management consists of 16 units, all of which are compulsory in order to obtain the diploma. The DBMM is taken as a complete qualification  and covers all specification and learning outcomes for the 16 units. Learners are required to complete all the 16 units that make up this programme, in order to gain the Diploma in Business and Marketing Management. Each unit is made up of 15 credits and learners are required to complete a total of 240 credits in order to receive their diploma. A learner will, on average, take 150 hours (incl. class time, self-study and assessment) to complete each course. Learners who decide to complete only some and not all the units can do so, but would not receive the diploma. In such circumstance, they would receive certificates of completion for those units completed.
