are Management 1️⃣2️⃣ Can I progress to Level 6 or further study after this course?

Yes, progression is a core feature of this qualification. The Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management Online (RQF, 120 Credits) is designed to meet the academic entry requirements for Level 6 study. Most UK universities accept this OTHM award for direct entry into the final year of a BA (Hons) or BSc in Health and Social Care, often referred to as a "top-up" degree. This route allows you to achieve a full bachelor’s degree without completing the first two years of undergraduate study. You must check individual university entry criteria, as some may require specific GCSEs or professional experience alongside the diploma. The qualification is Ofqual regulated, ensuring its academic weight is recognised by higher education providers.
