Assessments
Assessments are designed to provide you with an opportunity to demonstrate your strengths. A critical element of the assessment strategy is that you will have the chance to apply your learning directly into your day-to-day role.
A vital part of your Distance Learning MBA Top-up work will be the opportunity to create and take ownership of a detailed piece of research relating to a management issue.

Your tutor will be able to give you suggestions and tips for improvement and help you understand how to apply your newly-acquired skills into real life settings.
