New qualifications offered in 2010
Milpark Business School has received accreditation for three new higher education programmes from 2010 onwards.
The Postgraduate Diploma in Business Administration (PGDBA) (NQF level 7) will be offered by the Faculty of Management and Leadership. The purpose of the PGDBA is to equip high level graduates with the relevant skills, attitudes and knowledge needed to operate effectively in a management position across a number of functional business areas. It also prepares graduates for further and higher learning in the same or related areas of study (for example, an MBA).
The other newly-accredited qualifications are the Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning (NQF level 7) and the Bachelor of Business Administration degree (NQF level 6).
Successful completion of the Post Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning (HEQF level 8) is one of the requirements of the prestigious Certified Financial Planner® designation, awarded by the Financial Planning Institute of South Africa (FPI). The CFP® designation is an international mark that gives recognition to financial planning professionals. Milpark's qualification has been approved by the FPI to satisfy the educational requirements for the designation.
Milpark Business School will continue to focus in 2010 on the three core communities we serve namely Banking, Insurance and Financial Planning, and Management and Leadership. This focus is in line with our vision "to be the preferred private provider in South Africa and Africa of quality education in the areas of management, leadership, banking and insurance.
