ILM Level 7 Strategic Leadership Qualifications and Apprenticeships
This is a series of postgraduate (Masters level) programmes designed to help leaders shape strategy and drive significant improvement in their organisations.
The ILM Level 7 Certificate, Diploma in Leadership and Management programme is designed for senior managers and other leaders who shape strategy in their organisation. The programme will embody Cherith Simmons CLEVER Leadership™ and innovative approaches to face the challenge of a post-pandemic world.
It is suitable for aspiring and existing senior managers across all sectors.
Programmes can be run for leaders within an organisation or for groups of organisations who need to work in partnership.
Collaborative working is a feature of the programme and participants will need to demonstrate joint working via Action Learning Sets which can be actual or virtual, depending on the mode of study.
Uniquely we deliver 2 qualifications in one:
This means learners have more flexibility in deciding how they present their skills level, and it offers the opportunity to train managers who may not be eligible for an apprenticeship, on the same programme.
Management apprenticeships are funded through a levy scheme operated by HMRC which deducts 0.5% of annual payroll above £3 million. Employers can access this fund when they employ an approved Apprenticeship provider such as Cherith Simmons to deliver the programme.
Cherith Simmons can directly access the funding to pay for the apprentices’ training. Other schemes provide 95% funding for smaller organisations, which Cherith Simmons can access on your behalf.
Funding is currently worth £14,000.00 per apprentice making the training effectively free except for the accreditation fee.
Level 7 programmes are available via online Virtual workshops, face to face workshops and through self-study distance learning via our Night School programme.
Our Virtual Classroom system delivers highly interactive live zoom workshops. Comprehensive workbooks are supplied by our fully integrated Learning Management System.
This is a postgraduate Masters level programme, and all tutors hold Masters degrees.
