Diploma in Feature Roadmap, Bundles and Usage-Based Pricing
Online postgraduate diploma of 800 hours in feature roadmap, bundles and usage-based pricing. 8 modules covering fundamentals, the regulatory framework (Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR), ISO 13485), analysis methods with OpenSim, design and sizing, systems integration, risk management, validation and an integrative case study, with an assigned technical tutor.
Diploma in Feature Roadmap, Bundles and Usage-Based Pricing — studying from Ireland
Ireland's economy is strongly shaped by multinational technology, pharmaceutical and financial services firms, creating demand for professionals who combine technical understanding with management and policy skills. Dublin, Cork and Limerick host regional headquarters and shared service centres, and government agencies such as Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland support industrial development and innovation. Engineers and managers in this area work on programme management, technology strategy, digital transformation and regulatory compliance. Their work often connects engineering delivery with commercial, legal and public policy considerations.
Fees for Ireland: €1,790 (Euro), with instalments and employer sponsorship available.

Questions from Ireland
Which Irish bodies recognise qualifications in engineering management and technology policy?
Engineers Ireland recognises engineering competence for professional registration, while management qualifications are often judged by bodies such as the Chartered Management Institute's Irish presence or by employers directly. SEIUM's qualifications are private and not state-awarded, and they are not accredited by any national body. Recognition is therefore decided by employers or the relevant body, and you should verify this before enrolling.
Do Irish organisations hire for technology policy and management roles with private online qualifications?
Irish public bodies, consultancies and technology firms hire for policy and management roles, and they typically prioritise experience, professional credentials and communication skills. A private online qualification may strengthen an application, but its weight depends entirely on the employer. We cannot guarantee any particular career result.
Can I manage this study with a demanding job, and does my employer have to pay?
The programme is 100% online and taught in English, so it fits around work if you plan your hours. Master's programmes total 1,900 hours, postgraduate diplomas 800 and specialist courses 300. You are assigned a technical tutor, and fees can be paid in instalments. Employer sponsorship is possible but not required; many Irish employers have training budgets, so ask your manager early.
