Course overview

Our Certificate in Leadership is an innovative, work-based, leadership course that offers an alternative route to a Certificate in Higher Education (Cert HE) with the option to progress to a Diploma and BA (Hons) degree.

Our course is delivered through flexible, blended learning and offers the opportunity to study while at work. Our Certificate in Leadership is completed at distance using 'You Lead '.

'You Lead' is a unique leadership portal, which gives a focus for leadership development offering the chance for learners to meet online and discuss leadership issues and share knowledge. 'You Lead' has been designed to give students the tools to enhance their leadership potential and drive, to advance skills in the workplace.

There is a one day induction workshop, but the rest of the learning can be undertaken at a time, and a place, to suit individual circumstances.

Students on this course are likely to be employed in an organisation and wish to undertake a qualification that is relevant to their current job role. Leadership is a key issue on the corporate business agenda, and the course aims to develop leadership knowledge, skills, values and behaviours. Leadership is not just about models, tools and techniques. It also requires a good level of behavioural awareness, and the ability of the leader to reflect their own practice.
