Higher Apprenticeship in Leadership and Management, the executive acumen programme

The executive acumen programme is aimed at directors and senior managers in the private, public and voluntary sectors, ranging from small local SMEs to large, national organisations.

The programme uses directive programme content (learning resources) to develop new knowledge and skills, combined with nondirective coaching to ensure you learn and apply new knowledge and skills effectively in the workplace.

The programme begins with you developing the knowledge required to develop and lead a high performing team. Once you have developed this knowledge you are supported to apply these skills to develop a high performing team in your organisation.
