Learning Approach:

  • Five key competencies are formally assessed at a Development Centre at the beginning of the programme, and again at the end of the programme to evaluate progress made. Assessment methods at the development centres include group discussion, individual in-tray exercises, formal presentation, and completion of personality profiles
  • The five competencies are: Communication skills, Teamwork, Influencing skills, Planning and organising and Strategic thinking
  • Each participant puts together a personal development plan to be carried out during the year, focusing on the five competencies
  • Academic assessment is similar to the Certificate in Management Programme with a tutor marked assignment per module. In addition, a work based project is completed, which allows participants to demonstrate the application of learning to real management problems, within their own organisations.
