ilm recognised – First Steps into Management

ted Learning has developed this ilm Recognised programme to banish the ‘Accidental Manager’! We often see individuals with excellent technical abilities being promoted to positions with line management responsibility, without being equipped with the people skills needed to perform these roles successfully. This programme supports both new and existing managers.

LET'S TALK ABOUT ILM RECOGNISED FIRST STEPS INTO MANAGEMENT

This course is designed for anyone who has recently been promoted into a managerial position, or maybe has been managing for a while but never had any formal training. Through a series of interactive workshops we will develop the core skills needed to manage a team effectively, and the reflective journal work will develop self-awareness and help to apply what is learnt. Being an ILM Recognised programme means assignment work is reduced but the quality of content and delivery is recognised as meeting the ilm’s quality standards.

ted Learning is delighted to be an ilm Centre and able to deliver a series of Management & Leadership programmes. We offer both the ilm’s own Accredited programmes alongside our own designed and ilm Recognised programmes. This gives flexibility around the way the workshops and assessment can be delivered.

All of our programmes feature a blended learning approach of expert trainers with theory and discussion combined with theatre based learning where you get the chance to watch our actors in action and learn through observation. We take a dramatically different approach to many other ilm Providers by also achieving some of the assignments through practical assessment – this can be done via conducting an interview rather than just writing about it, with one of our actors playing the role of the candidate, for example.

First Steps into Management
Why come on the course?

  • Not sure how to delegate tasks or manage the step up into management?
  • Worried all management training has to have lots of written assignments?

If you have answered yes to any of the above questions, then this course is definitely for you.

First Steps into Management
What is it?

This programme runs over a period of around 11 months, with 9 workshops, most of which are full day sessions. There are 6 ‘core’ sessions, (covering what makes a good manager, communication, coaching and giving feedback, time management, managing performance & motivation and inclusion & diversity) and 3 ‘choice’ sessions which will be chosen by your employer from a suite of 9 different subjects.

Each workshop builds on the last, so that you can apply the skills you’re learning to specific situations. After each workshop, you’ll complete 2 short journal entries where you reflect on a specific aspect of the session, thinking about how it relates to your situation and job role.

These journal entries form the assessment of your learning and you’ll get individual written feedback on each of these to help you improve and apply your skills. At the end of the programme you’ll receive a certificate from the ILM in recognition of your achievement. you’ll receive a certificate from the ILM in recognition of your achievement.

First Steps into Management
What will I do on the programme?

  • Each workshop is different, but they’re all interactive and practical.
  • We’ll take you through some management theory, but we’ll help you apply it to your own situations so it’s meaningful and relevant to you.
  • Some workshops are theatre-based, where our actors will bring scenarios and behaviours to life, helping you to apply skills in practice.
  • By the end of the programme, you’ll have developed a toolkit of management skills to help you lead your team effectively.
