  • 4. How well organised/structured is your programme?

    • The OU MBA course was quite old (and the syllabus has subsequently been updated) but generally it was well run and organised. the biggest issue I and felloe students had was the lack of consistency of tutors and their knowledge of the apprenticeship elements of the course.
