Level 4 Diploma in Management

Level 4 NVQ Diploma in Management qualification is designed for learners who are working or would like to work in a managerial role within any sector or industry. It is ideal for those who have worked in an entry-level managerial role, or who’ve been working at such a level for a short period of time and are looking to further develop their managerial skills.

There are no specific recommended prior learning requirements for this qualification; however, learners may find it helpful if they’ve already achieved a Level 3 Management or related qualification.
