Accreditation & recognition

Established in 2004, LSIB has two decades of experience in management education. Our programmes lead to qualifications from awarding bodies regulated by Ofqual — the independent regulator of qualifications, examinations and assessments in England — and by Qualifications Scotland.

Regulated awarding organisations must meet strict standards for quality, assessment and learner support. Your certificate is issued by the awarding body and sits on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) or the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).

• Nationally recognised qualification levels (Level 3 to Level 8).
• Clear progression routes to UK university top-up degrees and master's programmes.
• Independent quality assurance of assessment and certification.

Level 7 diplomas are widely accepted for entry to UK master's top-up routes, and Level 4/5 diplomas provide direct entry to the final year of many bachelor's degrees. Our admissions team can advise on the pathway that fits your goals.
