What are the entry requirements for any of the SCQF Level 8 diploma program?
You are required to submit the kind of documentation that would typically be accepted for regular university admissions in your country. For Nigeria, this implies acceptable WAEC or NECO results. JAMB UTME scores are not required. For other countries, we will examine your results to determine that they are valid for admission in to the program.

The SCQF Level 8 Diploma in Business and Marketing Management is 240 credits, implying that it is actually equivalent to 2 years of UK undergraduate education, or a Higher National Diploma. “Level 8” under the Scottish Credits and Qualifications Framework is the same as Ofqual Level 5.
Under the British system, you can typically top this up to a Bachelors degree with only one additional year of university education.
How is Learning Assessed? Are There Exams?
There are no exams. Learning is assessed through a combination of assignments and projects.
Please note that these imply that you have to be committed and actually submit painstaking, well-researched work to earn good grades.
How About Bachelors Degree Top-Ups?

The EduQual SCQF Level 11 Diploma in Business Management is 120 credits, implying that it is actually equivalent to 1 year of UK postgraduate education, and is on the same level with a Masters degree, although it falls a little short as a UK Masters is typically 180 credits. “Level 11” under the Scottish Credits and Qualifications Framework is the same as Ofqual Level 7.
Under the British system, you can top this up to an MBA degree by merely completing a 60-credit project which can typically be done in less than 6 months.
