At The Academy of Leadership & Management, we concentrate on improving leaders, managers, coaches, mentors and business advisers through practical work-based and distance learning programs. All our courses lead to globally recognized qualifications from an awarding body e.g. ILM or the Small Firms Development Initiative (SFEDI). We are also an Institute of Enterprise and Entrepreneurs (IOEE) approved academy. We offer distance learning courses in the following subject fields:

• Leadership & Management

Our development programs are available to both individual students and employers who want to improve their people at an organizational level. Our courses are delivered online – making for a flexible and cost-effective learning option that can fit into a busy schedule. We also have a strong track record of designing tailored in-house programs suitable for employers. Additionally, we also supply program management, accreditation, and learning advisory services.

The Academy of Leadership & Management client base involves:

• Individual students
• Corporate clients
• Public sector clients, including local authorities and non-governmental organizations

As one of the broadest ILM learning centers in the UK, we attract a diverse client base and have a powerful record of developing new qualifications under the guidance of ILM.  We have a number of strategic partners that allow students to make the most of their qualifications. Most notably we have partnered with Edinburgh Napier University Business School to offer practical programs which give participants the occasion to obtain a degree at the undergraduate or postgraduate level.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

There are many companies offering professional development courses online and it can be difficult to choose a supplier. We have a number of values that make us stand out from the crowd. Most notably, we put a great emphasis on personalization. All students studying remotely with us are allocated their own designated tutor or executive coach who works with them on a one-to-one basis each month, ensuring that they can make the most of their course. We understand that each student comes to us with their own unique set of abilities, experiences, and aims. When it comes to professional development, we recognize that a ‘one size fits all’ approach does not work. That’s why we work with you to identify your aims, career ambitions, strengths, and development fields. We then tailor your course to fit your needs – inspiring you to take the logical next step in your professional or organizational development. Personalization, flexibility, innovation, integrity, and inspiration. These are the values that drive our business and your professional development.
