Rationale

Our Management’ Development Programmes deliver the basic knowledge and skills that a Team Leader, Supervisor, ‘First line’ or ‘Middle’ Manager needs. Further, they develop the individual’s confidence level as part of an organisation’s management team.  Established supervisory management will also benefit by the opportunity to review ways of managing ‘their people’ in terms of both current thinking and ‘best practice’ in today’s business environment.

There are no formal entry requirements but delegates will normally be practicing or potential first line managers (or other supervisory managers wishing to improve their man management skills) and have a current job role that will support the completion of a work-based assignment (ILM Endorsed option)

Programme Descriptions

The ‘Team Leader’ programme is based on one ‘core’ workshop plus a selection of two / three ‘optional’ modules. Programme duration is 27.5 to 38 learning hours (31.5 typical)

The ‘Supervisory Management’ programme is based on two ‘core’ workshops plus a selection of ‘optional’ modules. Programme duration can range from 40 to 69 learning hours.

The ‘Management Development’ programme is based on five ‘core’ workshops plus a selection of ‘optional’ modules. Programme duration can range from 72 to 96 learning hours.

The ‘Excellence in Management’ programme is based on six ‘core’ workshops plus a selection of ‘optional’ modules. Programme duration is a minimum of 102.5 learning hours which can be expanded to meet the development and business need.

In all programmes, ‘options’ are pre-selected against the needs of the business and the focus of the delegate’s responsibilities. The workshops are normally spread at four to six week interviews to allow for effective transfer of learning outcomes. Workshop duration is 6.5 hours and for ILM Endorsement, learning resources issued to delegates bring the total learning hours to an average of 10.5 hours.

Each workshop is designed for 8 to 12 delegates with two tutors facilitating to ensure individual support, group interaction and tutor attention. They are also designed as ‘experiential learning’ events that provide maximum benefit to the delegate and introduce the concept of learning whilst having fun. Activities include group and syndicate discussion, case studies, business games and video resources.

A further benefit of ‘experiential learning’ is that it encourages delegate interaction, self-confidence and the skills of networking in a safe environment.

The job titles used here are the equivalents to the VRQ recognised at levels 2, 3, 4 and 5 in Management.
