Is this programme for you?
Our Certificate in Management
programme is for those people who are likely to become
first line managers (team leaders or supervisors) or who
are already in post but have had little or no formal
training. They may work in factories and offices, in
hospitals, in call centres, on building sites, in
leisure centres, in the armed services and in the
voluntary sector.
This qualification is designed to
improve performance in the organisation through strong
focus on specific job role. This highly practical
programme can generate significant payback for any
organisation in terms of cost savings and quality
improvements in the workplace. Internal short training
sessions in the organisation can be incorporated into
the programme structure.
The whole programme will take a
minimum of 160 hours development time, plus time for
assessment, to provide you with the knowledge and skills
you need to perform effectively in the high pressure
world of the twenty-first century.
Can I do distance
learning?
To reduce your time away from the
workplace, you can take advantage of combining taught
workshops with our flexible learning resources. The use
of alternative delivery methods (such as open or online
learning) allows you to fit study time around your work
and personal life. As experts in the field of management
and leadership, we have developed a comprehensive range
of resources designed for each level of qualification.
How long will it take?
Our Certificate in First Line
Management will typically take between 9 and 15 months,
though this can be extended up to a maximum of 3 years
where necessary. Timescales are flexible according to
your personal and professional needs, and the use of
alternative delivery methods can be effective in
enabling you to fit study around your personal and work
life.
Where do
the qualifications lead?
The main purpose of this award is to
improve your performance which for some participants is
an end in itself. However, this award can be a stepping
stone to future personal development and qualifications.
