Which course level is right for you?

You might want to consider an Advanced Certificate.

STEP Advanced Certificates are designed for professionals who want to deepen their expertise in a specialist subject area, and for those working towards a Diploma-level qualification. They provide a higher level of technical knowledge while also offering practical skills that can be applied directly in your role.

What should I consider when choosing a qualification or course?

When deciding on the right programme, it’s important to think beyond just your years of experience or current role. While factors such as your professional background, level of seniority, and personal circumstances will help determine which qualification is most suitable, you should also consider:

  • Career goals – are you building foundational knowledge, specialising, or aiming for senior roles?
  • Role relevance – will the course support your current duties or future aspirations?
  • Time and commitment – how does the course fit into your schedule?
  • Future progression – does it lead to further study or long-term development?
