Course assessment strategy
The assessment strategy ensures you have gained the relevant knowledge and skills at each stage of your programme. The competencies you acquire are related to both professional contexts, and local and international perspectives.
Each module on our Online MBA(Global), Online Master in Strategic Marketing and Online Master in Finance and Investments courses includes a set of clear learning outcomes. These are your stepping stones to career success, and form part of a wider course assessment strategy.
