Executive summary

Executive summary

The syllabus covers global best practice, innovation and strategic thinking across all disciplines of communications and public relations.

The faculty are active director-level communication professionals with decades of front-line experience, not career academics.

The qualification is backed by a strong partnership. Training is delivered by Pinnacle PR, the world’s largest specialist communications and PR training company. The Diploma is awarded, accredited and independently audited by Edexcel, the world’s largest qualification provider.

The high-level content and application criteria attract a select and talented cadre of mainly director-level learners, providing a stimulating peer environment and a fruitful alumni network.

The schedule minimises the disruption of time away from the workplace and maximises its value through immersion in three of the world’s primary centres of innovation in communication.

The learning format minimises demands on time outside the classroom, with around two-thirds of assessment conducted in-class and no more than one written assignment per month.
