Here is a list of the top courses for C plain Grade

1.Diploma in Purchasing &Supplies Management

Purchasing & Supply Management programme focus on preparing students to work in the purchasing departments of firms and public organizations. Combining state-of-the-art science with a practical orientation, you will be prepared to assume a managerial role.

The effective management of a firm’s supplies is the responsibility of purchasing and supply managers, who search, select, contract and eventually manage suppliers in order to ensure the supply of materials and services that the firm needs.

2. Diploma in Human Resource Management
