2 evenings (7pm – 10pm) per week for 6 weeks. Start date is 29th May 2023.
Caution:
This is a pilot program, while SETU have agreed to recognise the testimonial for the entrants to the Higher Diploma in Business in Supply Chain Management (Level 8) in September 2023. Candidates that complete this program and seek deferral to later years may not be afforded the same recognition. It is therefore advisable that you only undertake this program if you intend to advance directly to the level 8 program.
The Higher Diploma in Business in Supply Chain Management is a major award at level 8 of the NFQ. It is frequently known as a conversion degree and is recognised in industry and qualifies for the entry criteria to level 9 programs. However some positions may call for a Level 8 Honours Degree specifically and might exclude the Level 8 Higher Diploma.
