Methods of Assessment

This qualification encourages the use of a range of assessment strategies that will engage learners and give them an opportunity to both demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of a topic and to evaluate how they might apply that knowledge in a given context.   

We would recommend avoiding an over-reliance on essay writing and that more varied types of assessment are included. This might include assessment through:  

 

  • A research activity resulting in the compilation of a report 
  • An academic paper or article for publication 
  • The compilation of a case study  
  • A critical review and evaluation of a chosen company’s policies, procedures and systems 
  • A set project completed for an employer (also known as an ‘employer-engagement’ activity) 
  • The production of a portfolio of evidence relating to a particular unit   
The Diploma in Business and Management has been accredited to the Regulated Qualifications Framework. The qualification has a Qualification Accreditation Number (QAN). This number will appear on the learner’s final certification documentation. Each unit within a qualification also has an RQF code.   
The QAN numbers for the qualifications: 603/3345/5
