Project Management: CMI Level 3 (Distance Learning)

You do not need to have any formal qualifications in order to follow this course, but you will need to demonstrate commitment and motivation to work through the specially prepared distance-learning materials. The qualification can be offered to learners from age 19. CMI does not specify entry requirements for the qualification, but we are required to ensure that learners admitted to the programme have sufficient capability at the right level to undertake the learning and assessment.

The qualification provides opportunities for progression to other qualifications at the same or higher levels, which could also be work-based or more academically structured. The qualification also supports learners in meeting the requirements for work and/or employment within all areas of management and leadership at this level.

£334. 

Payment for the course can be made direct either by the learner or employer. Alternatively, an Advanced Learner Loan may be available to help learners aged 19 and over pay for the course costs.

Please note: Fees are for 2023/24 entry and are for home and EU students of all ages. For more information about financial support for students, please click here.

It is expected that learners will already be working in a Project Management environment, although the qualification is also open to learners wishing to build on their general management skills.

Candidates work through the course materials for the programme at times convenient to them, so there is no need to attend the college to gain the qualification. The learning materials contain the knowledge needed to meet the assessment requirements of the course and activities to allow candidates to practice their skills and test their learning. Assessments are based on a combination of knowledge and skills learned on the programme and work-based activities and experience.
