This is a stimulating and highly practical programme
aimed at first line managers and those aspiring to become
managers. It is particularly suited to those with little or
no formal training as it enables participants to relate good
management practice to real situations and improve their
techniques in managing staff, change, workloads and
finances.
The programme leads to a qualification, and the opportunity for associate membership with the Institute of Leadership & Management (AMInstLM). It recognises achievement through 5 pieces of assessed work and assists with career progression. Some personal tutorial support will be given for development and assessment.
The programme builds on the 2 day Management and Supervision Skills course and covers:
- Identifying self development needs for professional growth

- Understanding how organisations work
- Bringing about effective change
- Planning work through objectives and targets
- Using information to make decisions
