ILM Award in Leadership

Course Title:
ILM Award in Leadership

Level:
Level 5

Introduction:
The ILM Award in Leadership is both short programmes designed to develop your understanding of leadership theories and how this understanding can be used to improve your leadership practice. The ILM Level 5 (new NQF) Award in Leadership is particularly useful for middle managers who lack the opportunity to engage actively in leadership but who want to be prepared for a future opportunity to do so.

Suitable for:
The ILM Level 5 (new NQF) Award in Leadership is for those managers with extensive leadership experience who wish to learn more about the underpinning principles and those who lack the support in the workplace needed for the kind of development involved. Those with extensive leadership practice may want the confidence that comes from learning more about leadership theories and principles, but both groups should be aware that they can subsequently complete the second Unit for the full Certificate.

Entry Requirements:
There are no formal entry requirements, but participants must be practising or potential middle managers (or equivalent). For the Certificate in Leadership, the opportunity to practice leadership consistently within a workplace or similar setting is required.
