System Flow Coordinator
"I’ve been a manager for 14 years and some of the things I’ve learnt I'd never even considered before. It's really made me think about how I approach and impact team leaders in my role and how I can engage them before I can even about initiating real change."
Head of Operations and Compliance
"If you're thinking of your next steps and your personal development within your organisation, I would definitely recommend this course for you. It’s given me the tools to become a senior leader."
Head of Risk and Compliance
"When we’re learning on campus it's great to all be together in one room and bounce ideas off each other. The learning helps me put things into perspective and you can apply everything straight directly into your role."

These programmes are fully funded by the Apprenticeship Levy. For employers who do not pay into the levy, the government will pay 95% of the course costs. There is additional support available for the remaining 5%.
Learners will have access to services such as our 24/7 library, student support, and academic skills development. Our course team and Workplace Learning Coaches will be available for support throughout, as well at the interactive virtual learning environment. Your employer should also be another route of support during your studies.
