What exactly is a level 5 in Management?

[KatyMac]

I did a preliminary certificate in First Line Management which I loved

I have been offered a level 5

But what level is it?

It's very expensive

I understand level 5 to be masters / higher degree level.

My understanding is that the levels go like this...

level 1 - GCSE grades D - G
level 2 - GCSE grades C - A*
Level 3 - 'A' level standard
Level 4 - Degree standard (bachelors)
Level 5 - Higher degree standard (masters).

I might be wrong, but that's my understanding!
HTH

Unless it is levels uniquely relevant to your course, in which case I haven't a clue!

I think Degrees are actually 5 - 7 and masters is 8

Level 5 is HNC/HND I think Maybe even foundation degree

Oh

that's interesting

So 2 yrs to do a level 5 with some taught time (about 18 days I think) - then what do I do next

Or 4 yrs to do an OU degree & complete it

Why is it all about choices?

yep, Juney bean I think you're right. See this link...
