What happens when I book a course? 
A foundation module is similar to an A level in many ways, its a doorway to the University qualifications. CFBA 1101 carries 25 credits. Using the foundation module credits you can now enter the level one university accredited modules for the three qualification on offer with the CIDBT through Middlesex University. However, the credits are for that Foundation module alone and can not be counted towards MU qualifications. In the same way as you may gain one or more A levels to enter University the same A levels cannot be counted towards your degree.
