Programme Overview: MBA with Diploma in International Business Law - 18 months
The MBA with Diploma in International Business Law - 18 months at LEAP Education is a degree-level
qualification delivered 100% online for learners who need flexible, career-focused study without leaving employment.
The programme carries 180 credits
and is designed to be completed in 18 months,
with structured tutor support from enrolment through to certification.
Boardrooms in emerging markets are increasingly rejecting commercial leaders who cannot articulate the legal risks embedded in their growth strategies. As cross-border regulatory scrutiny intensifies, the ability to negotiate complex international contracts and ensure compliance is no longer a support function; it is the core competency distinguishing C-suite executives from mid-level managers.
Command the authority to lead high-stakes mergers and acquisitions by mastering both commercial strategy and international business law. Draft binding agreements that protect corporate assets across multiple jurisdictions while simultaneously driving revenue growth. Secure promotion to senior executive roles by demonstrating the rare dual capability to manage P&L responsibilities and mitigate global regulatory liability.
This pathway is built for commercial managers, trade directors, and legal advisors in regions like West Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East who possess deep operational experience but lack the formal credential to cross into executive leadership. If you have spent five to ten years navigating international markets and are now blocked from VP or Director roles because your expertise is viewed as purely operational, this qualification validates your strategic authority. It equips you with the rigorous legal and business framework required to advise boards directly and command the salary commensurate with that level of responsibility.
