Course description
ILM Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management (Online Supported by Individual Coaching)
The ILM Level 5 Certificate & Diploma in Leadership & Management are designed for practising middle managers, helping them to develop their skills and experience, improve performance and prepare for senior management responsibilities.
The Diploma builds upon and broadens the skills and knowledge gained through the Certificate, which acts as its first six modules. Students work with their coach to develop a personal development plan (PDP), based on an analysis of the challenges arising facing their organisation, their strengths and the development areas that arise. They then work on their PDP over the remaining months of the programme, interacting with their coach and reflecting on progress and achievements on a monthly basis. Then, at the end of the process, they evaluate the impacts on their knowledge and capabilities on their organisation of the delivery of the plan. These plans, reflections and evaluations form the basis of the assessment.
