Our programmes are ILM Accredited

Working flexibly and at your own pace you can gain an internationally recognised Institute of Leadership and Management qualification at Level 5 Award, Certificate, or Diploma. You will also gain Workplace Innovation Foundation Status or accreditation as a Workplace Innovation Practitioner, signifying your competence in securing effective and sustainable workplace change.

Our state of the art e-learning platform includes all the personal learning resources and tools you need for your qualification, with clear descriptions, stories, short films and practical exercises. It’s stimulating, fun and practically focused – and we support you with feedback and mentoring at every step.

And you can avoid lengthy assignments! Our online Learning Log asks you for brief reflections on each of the core themes, and how you might apply them in practice. This forms the basis for your tutor comments and ILM assessment.

Study in your own way at your own pace

We recognise that everyone looks for different things when they sign up for a leadership development programme. That’s why our Workplace Innovation Leadership Programmes offer a flexible combination of e-learning, online and in-person tuition, all delivered at your own pace.

And while the core knowledge and leadership skills delivered by the programme remain constant, our experienced tutors help you navigate through our rich learning resources to help you find the insights and tools most relevant to you and your organisation.

Even the assessment can be customised to your own needs and preferences. As well as completing the Learning Log previous participants have submitted films, action plans and interview transcripts as evidence of their personal achievement.
