How the diploma runs
Run as evening or weekend cohorts at our centre in Damascus, as live online classes, or privately for a team. Most cohorts complete the diploma in roughly 10 to 12 weeks. You work on your own organisation, or a case we provide, throughout, and the diploma closes with a complete strategic plan with an operational plan and scorecard, presented to your trainer.
Questions and answers
An Alalamia diploma is our own award. It shows that you completed a planned programme of several courses with us, passed its practical assessments and met the attendance requirement. An international certification is awarded by the vendor or awarding body after you pass its official exam. Many of our diplomas prepare you for such a certification, but the certification itself is earned through that exam, not through the diploma.
No. The diploma fee covers training and course materials. Exam fees are separate and are paid directly to the exam provider. We will tell you which exam applies and what it involves. Many exams can be sat at our Authorised Test Centre for Pearson VUE and Prometric in Mazzeh, and we confirm the exact exam before you book.
Yes. You can start with the first course of a diploma and continue at your own pace, or take a single course on its own. Each completed course earns an Alalamia certificate, and the courses you complete count towards the diploma if you decide to finish it later.
Yes, instalments are possible and are agreed in writing before you start. Quotes are given in writing in US dollars. Payment is made at our office and you always receive a receipt. Your place is confirmed once your registration form is complete and we have received the first payment or agreed instalment.
