Built for people who already work
The MBA with Diploma in Accounting and Finance is a UK master’s degree delivered 100% online by LEAP Education and awarded by a UK university partner with degree-awarding powers. The programme totals 180 credits at FHEQ Level 7 and is assessed entirely by assignment, with no written examinations.
Standard completion is 24 months. You can start at any time, study around full-time work and submit coursework online. Fees from £5,700 with interest-free instalment plans. Graduates progress to postgraduate study or senior management roles.
Senior finance roles now demand leaders who can command boardroom strategy, not just balance sheet compliance. Technical accuracy alone keeps you trapped in cost-center management, while the ability to translate financial data into aggressive growth plans unlocks executive influence.
You will defend capital allocation decisions against C-suite scrutiny and lead restructuring conversations that drive profit optimization rather than mere compliance. This credential equips you to negotiate Director-level titles that require dual competency in management and finance, securing promotions that reward strategic vision over administrative oversight.
