Course decision guide

Is this the right route for you?

Use these fit questions alongside the qualification facts. Final entry and recognition decisions remain with the relevant provider or receiving organisation.

This route may suit you if

  • Learners who want logistics and operations specialism at Level 4 followed by broader Business Management at Level 5.
  • People interested in supply-chain decisions who also want strategy, HR, marketing and business-law study.
  • Learners comfortable receiving two differently titled OTHM diplomas within one commercial package.

Compare another route first if

  • You need logistics specialism at both Level 4 and Level 5.
  • You expect CIPS membership, professional certification or a supply-chain role to be included automatically.

Professional development

You can compare separate supply-chain memberships or certifications, while the relevant body decides eligibility and requirements.

Questions before enrolment

Frequently asked questions

Open each question to review the controlled answer. Ask RSG to confirm provider terms that may have changed.

Are both qualifications in logistics?

No. The verified Level 4 qualification is in Logistics and Supply Chain Management, while the verified Level 5 qualification is in Business Management.

Is CIPS membership included?

RSG does not currently state that CIPS membership is included. Professional memberships and certifications must be confirmed for the exact course and current provider terms.

Does the course guarantee a supply-chain role?

No. It develops relevant knowledge, but employers make their own decisions based on skills, experience and role requirements.

What happens if I cancel, withdraw or request a refund?

Online Business School's current cancellation, withdrawal and refund terms apply. Ready Study Global does not set or administer the provider's refund decisions. Ask us for the current OBS terms before enrolment or payment.

Why does the Level 5 stage use Business Management rather than Logistics?

The current evidence identifies a specialist OTHM Level 4 Logistics and Supply Chain Management diploma followed by the OTHM Level 5 Diploma in Business Management. The package therefore broadens at Level 5.
