Overview

The Level 3 Award in Leadership and Management aims to give practicing and potential first line managers the foundation for their formal development. The course is ideal for individuals who have management responsibilities but no formal training, in addition to those who wish to develop their abilities. It particularly supports practising team leaders seeking to move up to the next level of management and managers who need to lead people through organisational change and other pressures.

This course will be delivered fully online using Microsoft Teams and will be further supported and assessed through the use of common digital tools such as Microsoft Office, online learning resources and online meetings. Prospective learners should therefore have a level of competence and confidence in the use of IT, as well as sufficient IT and internet access to facilitate this.

This course is also 90% funded by the Department for the Economy and 10% paid by the employer as part of the Skills Focus Programme. To qualify, your business or social enterprise must have less than 250 employees and you must be based in Northern Ireland and operate for profit.
