Level 3 diploma pathways, by subject
Every OTHM and Qualifi Level 3 diploma that London School of Planning and Management (LSPM) can deliver, grouped by subject. Each is a regulated qualification and a route to a Level 4 diploma through the centre. None of them carries UCAS Tariff points, which is why they sit on this site next to a calculator that will tell you so.
If you already hold A levels, a BTEC National, a T Level or another scored qualification, run it through the calculator first. You may not need any of these. They are for people the Tariff does not serve.
Business and Management
The largest group on the site: ten OTHM and Qualifi diplomas from a 60-credit introduction to management up to a 180-credit Extended Diploma with study skills built in.
