A Higher National Diploma (HND) is designed for those who wish to develop their professional expertise and skills across a range of essential curriculum areas. A HNC/D can be studied as a stand-alone programme or can form part of a three-year degree programme.

There are diploma’s available in business, management, finance, computing, marketing, sales, supply management, travel and tourism. All the diploma’s offered by RDI are UK University or BTEC qualifications, recognised nationally and internationally. All of our diploma courses allow progress to degree, MBA or masters courses.

Study by Distance Learning

Studying a diploma course by distance learning is more cost effective than studying full-time on campus, allowing the individual to continue to work and to develop their career at the same time. Potential employers frequently recognise and value the commitment made by an individual studying by distance learning or online. Studying a diploma by online or distance learning through RDI means you receive all the learning materials and tutor support you need to succeed.

On enrolment on a distance learning diploma course each individual is allocated a tutor for academic support who can be contacted by email and telephone. Each individual will also have access to a student support co-ordinator who will be there for administrative advice to make the diploma learning experience successful and enjoyable.
