Read below to find out how you can turn our 3 ILM Awards (Level 3) into an Institute of Leadership and Management Level 3 Certificate

This course is for anyone who is currently in a job, or who has solid management experience and is hoping to progress into a new job and it is particularly suited to practising managers who would benefit from taking time out of the workplace to reflect on themselves as managers, learn new skills and apply them to their own work context. 

People who are new to a management role are also welcome to apply.  

You may already be aware of your management style and your organisation’s culture but in today’s challenging world, would adopting different management tools and techniques now be appropriate to get the job done? 

It can sometimes take 6 months to one year to achieve ILM qualifications.  We offer our Awards over 2 short residential stays each Award!  This Award is a great opportunity for you to step away from your everyday life and really reflect on yourself as a manager, your team, your specific areas of responsibility, learn new skills and how you can implement them into your own individual workplace.   

By doing this course, you will reflect on the leadership skills you already have and learn skills you will need to succeed in an increasingly challenging and unpredictable world. This accredited qualification will include  established models and tools that can enhance your credibility as a knowledgeable manager with your team, peers and leadership groups. The course is taught by tutors who are familiar with working as senior managers and who will be using their experience to  lead the discussion and learning into areas where you would appreciate practical help in the context of you as a manager, and your own individual workplace.

On successful completion of  two related assignments, your achievement will be recognised with an ILM Award and you will automatically be made a student member of the Institute of Leadership and Management with use of their professional resources for 6 months.
