All the OBS diplomas are module based. You progress at your own pace. You complete one module at a time before moving on to the next with no deadlines.
Students access all the course materials, submit assignments and interact with fellow students and tutors through their bespoke online learning platform. Students also get unlimited tutor access to ensure they are on the right track.
All of the OBS diplomas are externally awarded by Qualifif or OTHM. This external accreditation means that the certificates are mapped into the UK qualifications framework and demonstrate the learner has completed a set amount of credits at the specified level. This external validation and mapping enable students to use the OBS diplomas to fast-track their entry into undergraduate and postgraduate top-up degrees.
All OBS accredited certificates are recognised by OFQUAL, the UK government body for academic standards in Higher education. This ensures that the OBS certificates are nationally and internationally accepted and can be used for admission to undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.
OBS courses are designed to be as flexible as possible so that students can complete the courses whilst working full time. This flexible approach with no deadlines means that students can push ahead when they have more time available to study. However, they will not be penalised when work or life events take precedence. Students can choose which order they take the course as each module is an independent learning unit.
As the OBS is a 100% online business school, they have created a range of student support tools designed around online students. In addition, students have unlimited access to a dedicated student support team while studying. The OBS has eight student Hubs focusing on learning, professional and personal development, fitness, and wellness.
