Employee benefit 2: Management Qualifications improve your career prospects
Amanda Cherrington - Service Manager for Business Regulation at the London Borough of Sutton says:
"Getting the Diploma gave me a huge boost to my confidence and has helped me lead and manage my team more effectively. Since completing the course I have been promoted and I now delegate far more effectively."
Achieving an in-house management qualification is not easy. It requires dedication, excellent personal organisation and careful planning. It needs quite a bit of own time study - up to 4 hours or more per week. No wonder then that organisations recognise that people who have the strength of character to complete a programme like this are prime candidates for promotion.
Furthermore, the material that you learn on the programme is designed specifically to help with transition to new levels:
Level 3 management qualifications look at "what does it take to become as effective as a "manager" as you may have been at "doing the job" before you got promoted?
Level 5 management qualifications focus on "how do I improve my delegating and management of key people in my team to ensure that I can focus on "improving things" rather than just day to day firefighting which I seem to have to do most of the time?"
Level 7 management qualifications explore "what does it take to operate at a senior level - how can I read and engage with organisational culture and politics so I can make a difference and become a key player in moving my organisation forwards?"
