Both are the good management programmes. The difference are that Post Graduate Programme in Management (PGPM) is a certificate course, It not necessarily approved by AICTE. It can be a typical one year program or can be of any duration as decided by that particular Institute. Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) is a diploma after a graduation issued by AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) recognized institutions. Institutes and b-schools offering PGDM course are autonomous body with industry-oriented curriculum. Duration of PGDM is up to two years and is normally a full-time program. Industries consider PGDM as equivalent to MBA for employment purposes.

PGPM program carry very less importance and development opportunities. PGDM is a degree that enables you to pursue higher education like Ph.D but completing a PGPM program does not facilitates you to opt for higher studies.

PGPM program does not acquire any approval While AICTE approved PGDM programs are universally accepted and offers superior education quality as per AICTE standards.

The choice should be yours as per your interest.

Good Luck!
