Course Details

The purpose of the qualification is to develop the underpinning knowledge, understanding and management skills required by learners working in middle management positions. It is designed to support learners in developing the confidence and competence needed to lead and manage individuals and teams effectively, while contributing to the wider aims and objectives of their organisation.

Learners will develop knowledge of effective leadership and management practices, including how to motivate and support individuals, build effective teams, manage performance and contribute to organisational success. The qualification also supports learners in developing the skills required to create and implement strategic plans, respond to organisational priorities and manage strategic change effectively within their workplace.

The qualification is suitable for managers working across a wide range of occupations, organisations and sectors. This makes it relevant to individuals who already hold management responsibilities and wish to strengthen their professional knowledge, as well as those seeking to progress into more senior leadership positions. Learners will have the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding and application of key management skills within their professional context.

The qualification also forms the knowledge element of the Higher Apprenticeship in Management, providing learners with a structured foundation for developing their management expertise and supporting their continued career progression.
