Requirements:

The course is aimed at a wide range of potential entrepreneurs/enterprising professionals, or those who wish to create a new enterprise, in the public or private sector. We acknowledge that every application will be very different. However, as this is postgraduate study certain academic/course criteria need to be met regardless of whether the course it taken in its entirety, or in discrete components. A typical offer may be an HND with experience through employment for 3 years, or the equivalent at degree level. Alternatively, and exceptionally, individuals who can demonstrate a flair for enterprise, either in the workplace or personally, would be considered and subsequently supported.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
