• Increasingly, companies are using these modules as part of a modular technical and professional development plan for their staff
• Additionally, many industry professionals attend the courses as part of their Continuing Professional Development
• This course is designed to lead to Postgraduate Certificate, Diploma and MSc qualifications depending on modules taken and work commitment by students. For further details, please contact Stella Pearson-Smith, our QP Course Administrator at [email protected] for more information
