AWARDING ORGANISATION:
The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) is the only chartered professional body in the UK that is dedicated to promoting the highest standards in management and leadership excellence. Over 100,000 managers use its services on a daily basis. It was over 60 years ago that, as the British Institute of Management back then, the organisation developed the UK’s very first diploma in management studies. In the years that followed CMI has constantly been at the forefront of all aspects of management training and thinking. CMI’s practical qualifications are ideal for managers and leaders at any level, and CMI remain the only awarding and independent body
recognised by the Privy Council to award Chartered Manager status
(CMgr MCMI).
TARGET GROUP:
A Senior Leader is someone who provides clear, inclusive, and strategic leadership and direction, typically to the operational departmental managers. They are accountable to the business owner or a Board of Directors. Working in the private, public or third sector and in all sizes of organisation, specific responsibilities and job titles will vary, but the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed will be the same. Key responsibilities and award requirements will include shaping organisational mission, culture and values, new market strategies, business modelling, competitive strategies, including horizon scanning perspectives and the use of big data and insight to implement and manage change, financial strategies and building agile and collaborative cultures.
COURSE DURATION:
30 months with 6 months for end point assessment.

Alliance Learning will also work closely with the employer to ensure that the learner achieves the 20% off-the-job learning opportunities required prior to end point assessment.
