MBA with Business Strategy – 12 Months
Your Specialisation: Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making
The Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making is a natural companion to the MBA with Business Strategy programme, as it extends the information management skills covered in modules such as Information Management and Strategic Decision Taking, and Strategic Planning. By learning to collect, analyse and interpret data to inform strategic decisions, students can enhance their ability to drive business success, a key theme throughout the MBA programme, particularly in modules like Strategic Direction and Development as a Strategic Manager. This specialisation builds on the foundational knowledge provided in the MBA, allowing students to develop a deeper understanding of how data can be used to support strategic decision making.
The MBA with Business Strategy programme is a full accredited qualification, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of business strategy and management, while the Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making is a focused, non-credit-bearing professional development programme. This distinction is important, as the specialisation is designed to sharpen practical, career-facing expertise, rather than providing academic credits. By combining these two programmes, students can gain a unique blend of theoretical knowledge and practical skills, setting them apart in the business world.
Holding both the MBA with Business Strategy and the Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making can open up a range of career opportunities, particularly in roles that require strategic decision making and data analysis. This combination is particularly relevant in industries such as finance, marketing, and management consulting, where the ability to collect and analyse data to inform strategic decisions is highly valued. Students who complete both programmes can expect to be well-equipped to take on leadership roles, such as strategic manager or business analyst, and can apply their skills in a variety of situations, from driving business growth to improving operational efficiency.
By enrolling in the study bundle, students can complete both the MBA with Business Strategy programme and the Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making in a flexible online environment. This allows students to balance their studies with work and other commitments, and to complete the programmes at their own pace. With the support of LSBR's online learning platform, students can access all the materials and resources they need to succeed, and can connect with fellow students and instructors to discuss key concepts and share experiences. By studying both programmes together, students can gain a comprehensive understanding of business strategy and data-driven decision making, and can develop the skills and expertise needed to succeed in today's fast-paced business environment.
Apply for the programme as normal — once your application is accepted you can add Advanced Certificate in Data-Driven Decision Making (and any of the other complementing programmes below) at checkout.
