are Management, learners must achieve 240 credits in total, of which 120 credits are at Level?

No. The Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care Management Online (RQF, 120 Credits) is a standalone qualification worth exactly 120 credits, all at RQF Level 5. It does not require 240 credits. That figure likely refers to a full Foundation Degree or HND, which combine Level 4 and Level 5 study. This OTHM award is regulated by Ofqual (610/1537/4) and serves as a direct entry route to Level 6 top-up degrees. You complete the 120 credits here, then progress separately. There is no hidden credit requirement. The course is assignment-based, online, and designed for working professionals. It stands alone as a complete Level 5 credential, recognised for progression without needing additional lower-level credits.
