The Advanced Diploma in Business Management provides comprehensive business education focused on digital transformation and the impact of exponential technologies on society and the workplace.  It provides students with the opportunity for students to analyze and evaluate business organizations and to understand the way in which they operate. Students are required to identify and analyze business problems and evaluate alternative solutions against a background of the environment in which management operates.

The discipline of management is developed through a focus on three key areas: the management of people, the management of resources, and the exercise of leadership. There is a strong focus on the development of management skills and competencies, underpinned by a thorough understanding of the theory of management and digital transformation.
