Institute of Leadership and Management

This work-based course is designed for practising middle managers, with responsibility for operations, resources, implementation of change, managing people, budgets and information, to develop their management skills and knowledge.

This qualification combines collation of practical work-based evidence with knowledge units.

Learners study four mandatory units which cover contributing to a strategic plan, designing a business process, managing strategic change, and leadership. Students then choose from a diverse range of optional units to complete the qualification, tailoring their learning to meet their individual and organisational needs.

Competency units will be assessed via the collation of a portfolio of evidence to meet assessment criteria. Evidence could include reflective accounts, professional discussions, witness testimonies, photographs, and work product evidence such as minutes, reports, emails, and procedures.

Knowledge units are assessed via written assignments and professional discussion.

GCSEs at Grade 9-4, including English and Maths.
