Add immediate value to your employer, your work and your life
Blown away by my experience of the Masters. It's exactly what I've always wanted from a learning environment.
Tory Strethill-Wright, 2022 MA Participant
Developed for forward-looking organisations and professionals who want to become wise leaders of change, the new Masters (MA) in People and Organisation Development delivers a fresh approach to change management.
The three-year, part-time course is designed for people with big jobs and busy lives, but who want to learn for themselves. This hybrid programme blends immersive residentials and online learning delivered by world-leading faculty, in partnership with the University of Chichester.
We understand that life is busy and changable. That’s why you don’t need to commit to the full three year MA.
You can take it a year at a time and still walk away with a level 7 Qualification at the end of each year.
If you change roles, or your home circumstances change, you can take a break and then come back to us when you are able to pick it up again.
I’ve loved meeting like-minded people where you can come as you are.
I think differently now I’ve found a community, found a home.
Amy Martin, 2022 MA Participant
