Exciting new management qualification from QA-IQ:Accredited by Middlesex University's Institute for Work Based Learning
QA-IQ has today launched a new accredited programme for management development in a unique partnership with Middlesex University's Institute for Work Based Learning. This degree-level qualification combines the flexibility of building knowledge through QA-IQ's renowned 'Art of People' courses with guided learning in the workplace to embed skills and deliver hands-on experience. The programme will be completed by a work based assignment, applying the skills learnt directly to a relevant project.
Vice-Chancellor of Middlesex University, Professor Michael Driscoll comments; "Middlesex University is delighted to be working in partnership with QA-IQ to offer Institute of Work Based Learning qualifications. This partnership will benefit more organisations and individuals, and help UK businesses increase their competitiveness."
Director of Learning Development at QA-IQ, Dr Brian Sutton, adds; "These qualifications provide the full skill set needed to be an effective manager, while delivering knowledge that is immediately applicable in the workplace. Organisations and individuals can have the confidence that Middlesex University's track record in work based learning combined with QA-IQ's innovative courses will deliver an exceptional learning experience."
• Programmes begin with the QA-IQ Certificate in Management for those new to management or team leadership. This introductory level qualification will help to develop the skills needed to lead a team, the relationship skills to create and influence personal networks, and the knowledge to perform effectively.
• The QA-IQ Diploma in Management provides skills for those managing cross-functional or pan-organisational initiatives, and leading dispersed teams. Those completing the programme will understand how to successfully kick off new initiatives, build a compelling business case, and negotiate effectively.
• The QA-IQ Advanced Diploma in Management supports those who already have broad management skills but now need to bring about transformational changes in business performance. New skills developed will include coaching for performance and transformational leadership, dealing with organisational politics and the tools and techniques of business transformation.
The programme has been developed to ensure that attendees immediately see the relevance of the new skills to their day-to-day role, with experienced tutors supporting learners throughout the programme and helping them to reflect on how to put their new knowledge in to practice. Access to Middlesex University's 'Virtual Learning Environment' means that students will also be able to refer to library materials and the latest journal articles, as well as completing their assignments from their workplace.
