Whether you want to join a global company, grow a start-up, or launch your own venture, this flexible education pathway gives you the essential foundation to succeed in modern business.

What does the course look like? 

This flexible learning programme is structured across four levels and designed for different entry points depending on your academic background. Learning is asynchronous and project-based, giving you the freedom to study at your own pace while receiving ongoing support

Learners who have completed Grade 10 (or equivalent) begin at Level 3, while those who have finished high school start at Level 4. Each level consists of diverse modules, detailed in our course booklet, and the programme is fully online and accessible globally—though we encourage you to join one of our Hubs to benefit from community and collaboration as part of your flexible schooling journey.

After completing Level 5, Learners transfer to one of our partner universities for Level 6, with the option to continue studying online or attend classes in person. While some of our official partner universities for this pathway offer rolling admissions, other ATHE higher education institutions may have set intake periods.

 

How Do the Levels Work?

    Designed for Learners aged 16+ without a high school diploma who have completed 10th grade (or equivalent). The programme is fully asynchronous, with rolling admissions throughout the year.

  4. Level 6
    The final step is equivalent to the third year of university, transitioning into a degree programme through partner universities such as Bolton University or BHMS. Completion results in a bachelor’s degree from Bolton, BHMS, or another ATHE-recognised institution.
