REGENT Business School’s Postgraduate Diploma in Educational Management and Leadership has been endorsed by the South African Council for Educators (SACE), enabling educators to earn 45 professional development (PD) points on successful completion of the qualification.
Endorsement value
The endorsement strengthens the programme’s value for educators seeking to advance their qualifications while investing in their ongoing professional growth. It combines postgraduate learning that builds educational leadership capability with points recognised through SACE’s Continuing Professional Teacher Development (CPTD) system.
Effective educational leadership requires the ability to guide people, manage resources and make sound decisions that support teaching and learning. For educators preparing to take on greater responsibility, developing these capabilities can strengthen their contribution to their institutions and the communities they serve.
Programme benefits
The one-year programme develops leadership, management, problem-solving and decision-making skills in an educational context. Its curriculum covers educational management, leadership, governance, information technology, financial decision-making and research, helping students connect academic knowledge with the practical demands of managing learning institutions.
Delivered through a distance learning model, the qualification enables working professionals to pursue further study while remaining employed. This flexibility supports educators balancing their professional responsibilities with their own development.
The 45-point benefit provides an additional incentive for educators to invest in the qualification: an opportunity to strengthen their leadership capabilities while earning professional recognition for continued learning. REGENT Business School encourages educators who are ready to develop their leadership potential to explore the programme and take the next step in their professional journey.
