What clients say
Programmes that change how people work
“The course helped reshape our organisation. Since completing it the atmosphere has changed: the cynicism and mistrust have evaporated and been replaced by honest dialogue. If you are committed to real change, this is the process to truly build a better future for your organisation.”
Scott
Sales Director, Day Webster
“The trainers were engaging, and the course was well-paced. The resources and sessions were well put together, and the support provided to complete the coursework was really helpful. One of my favourite courses I have completed.”
Rachel
Wellbeing Manager, Babergh & Mid Suffolk District Councils
“A must for anyone struggling to find their voice in the workplace. I’ve gone from someone who used to sit back and not contribute to someone who is noticed by other members of management as a pillar of the business.”

FAQs
Management training programme questions
Which management training programme is right for our managers?
The Aspiring Managers Programme suits new and aspiring managers and supervisors, the Emerging Leaders Programme suits middle and operational managers, and the Senior Leaders Programme suits experienced and senior leaders. We start with a consultation to match the programme to your people.
Can a programme include an ILM qualification?
Yes. As an ILM Approved Centre we can align each programme to an ILM qualification: typically Level 3 for aspiring and first-line managers, Level 5 for middle managers and Level 7 for senior leaders. See our in-person ILM qualifications.
How are the programmes delivered?
In person at your premises or a venue of your choice, online, or blended. Sessions are spread over several months so managers can apply what they learn, with optional 1:1 coaching between sessions.
How long do the programmes take and how many people can attend?
Programmes run for 3 to 5 days spread over 4 to 8 months. Ideal group sizes range from 4 to 14 depending on the programme.
How much does an in-house management training programme cost?
Programmes are priced on consultation, as the cost depends on group size, the level of tailoring and whether you add ILM qualifications or coaching. We offer flexible payment terms.
We only need to train one or two managers. What do you recommend?
Our Essential Management Skills open course in London is ideal: 2 practical days with a PRISM profile, and an optional ILM Level 3 or 5. You can also study an ILM qualification through distance learning.
