| Professional Diploma/
Advanced Professional Diploma in Business Administration
In these programmes, students study for the
Association of Business Executives Diploma or
Advanced Diploma in Business Administration while
at the same time benefiting from an invaluable
period of work placement in the UK. The programmes
provide a thorough foundation in theoretical and
practical aspects of business management, and
give students the opportunity to consolidate their
learning with hands-on experience in the world
of business.
While on work placement, students will compile
reports on their experience, and complete the
programme with a dissertation combining theoretical
principles and practical experience.
Once students have successfully completed the
two year programmes, they will be awarded with
the Diploma or Advanced Diploma from Albion College
plus the Diploma or Advanced Diploma from the
Association of Business Executives. These qualifications
can then be used to show prospective employers
a combination of academic achievement and relevant
work experience. Alternatively they can be used
to pursue other Higher Education qualifications.
The Diploma provides access to Year Two of business
degree courses at many UK universities, and the
Advanced Diploma provides access to Year Three.
The qualifications also provide access to Years
Two or Three of the University of Derby degree
programme at Albion College.
