The NZIM Diploma in Management provides a thorough grounding in business and management practice appropriate for people wishing to enter management roles in business.
The qualification is designed as an exit point from the NZ Diploma in Business for those students who wish to have a basic understanding of management practice but do not wish to specialise in business studies.
