About this course

Certificate in Leadership and Management Skills. Work-based training at your workplace, completed over around six months while you stay in your current role.

This City and Guilds ILM Level 3 leadership and management training course builds practical skills you apply directly at work. You study leadership styles, team management, communication, and planning. Assessment is through a portfolio of evidence drawn from your real job. There are no formal entry requirements. VQ Solutions will confirm you're in a suitable role before you start.

You'll finish with a Level 3 Certificate in Leadership and Management Skills.

Who this course is for

This course is ideal if you’re a supervisor, team leader, first-line manager or aspiring manager who wants a solid, recognised foundation in leadership and management. It’s perfect for busy people who need practical skills they can apply immediately at work, while building a stronger professional development story for reviews, interviews and promotion opportunities. The Certificate gives you more depth and choice than the shorter Award, yet remains manageable alongside your normal working week.

Entry requirements

There are no formal entry requirements. The course is open to anyone aged 16 or over who has the opportunity to gather workplace evidence. VQ Solutions will confirm you’re in a suitable role (or realistic working environment) so you can successfully complete the portfolio.

How you will learn

You learn through your day-to-day work and build a portfolio of evidence from your real role. There are no classroom sessions. You have access to the Leader Study Pro platform and all learning materials are included. Assessment is portfolio-based, reviewed against the qualification criteria. You work at your own pace, with support available throughout.
