All units in this qualification are assessed internally by the centre and externally verified by OTHM. The qualification is criterion-referenced, requiring learners to meet all specified learning outcomes to achieve a pass.
Learners must submit evidence demonstrating they have met the learning outcomes and assessment criteria. The assessor then evaluates this evidence and provides an audit trail to document the learner’s achievement.
Upon completing the OTHM Level 4 Diploma in Project Management, learners can pursue a range of academic paths, including progression to relevant Level 5 Diplomas with OTHM.
Since this qualification is regulated by Ofqual (Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulation), learners may also qualify for direct entry into the second year of a three-year UK Bachelor’s degree. For further information, visit our website or contactc us directly.
