CBIT Similiar to OTHM and Qualifi but cheaper? - Donato88 - 12-10-2025
Came across https://cbitorg.co.uk/ Which also offers various level 5 to 7 qualifications similar to OTHM and QUALIFI, but much cheaper.

Just wondering... I see you asking a question here from the title... CBIT is cheaper, but for a reason, they're not OfQual regulated and OTHM and Qualifi are.
Futhermore, they're recognized by CMI, it doesn't mean they've partnered with CMI to get a CMI diploma, there is a difference. If you can transfer those classes from CBIT into CMI, and complete the CMI diploma, then it would have OfQual.
Here's a thread that would explain things better: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-UK-Level-7-8-Diploma-Questions
Now, here's the kicker, they mentioned they're BCS Accredited, but when I searched them up in the BCS database, they're not showing up, only two from the UK show up. Link: https://www.bcs.org/qualifications-and-certifications/higher-education-qualifications-heq/find-an-approved-training-centre/
