The awarding body's facts for this programme: level, credits, hours, units and entry criteria, with links to the specification and the Ofqual register. Our own notes on who it suits and how LSPM teaches it are still being written.
Level, credits, hours, units and Ofqual number are taken from the OTHM specification and the Ofqual register. Duration, study modes, fees and intake dates are set by London School of Planning and Management (LSPM), the approved centre.
Every fact on this page comes from OTHM and Ofqual. The parts we write (who the programme suits, how LSPM sequences the units, what the assignments involve, where graduates go) are not yet written for this programme, so the page is not offered to search engines. If you are considering it, ask us directly and we will answer the same questions from what we know of LSPM's delivery.
Same awarding body, same sector, same Level 5 outcome. The Extended Diploma includes the Level 4 stage; the Diploma assumes you already hold it.
Choose this if you already hold a Level 4 qualification in a related subject and only need the Level 5 stage.
Choose this if your highest qualification is at Level 3 and you want one enrolment that ends at year-two equivalence.
6 of the Level 5 unit titles appear in both programmes. Whichever route you take, you finish in the same credit position: 240 credits across Levels 4 and 5. The Extended Diploma reaches it under one registration and one certificate; the Diploma assumes a separate Level 4 award came first.

Each unit is assessed by written work set against that unit's learning outcomes. There are no timed examinations. Units are recorded as achieved rather than graded. See how LSPM teaches and assesses for the marking and verification process.
LSPM's tutors mark and give written feedback. OTHM samples marked work before results are ratified. A referred submission can be reworked after feedback.
On completion you hold Level 5 credit in tourism, hospitality and aviation. The usual next steps are a Level 6 diploma from the same awarding body or a final-year university top-up, subject in every case to the receiving institution's decision. See top-up routes.
Tell us what you hold now and we will say whether you are likely to meet OTHM's criteria; LSPM confirms eligibility and the next intake.
