Although I had good experience of consultancy projects, the Level 7 Professional Consulting course made me realise that there were many more aspects to being an effective consultant. My clients now comment on how much time I take in learning about their business environment, and how well I involve their own people – both approaches…
I was nervous about the course – the Level 5 Professional Consulting – but it was well-structured and the content was relevant to all of the businesses here in my country which I am aiming for. Very useful which I’m already making use of – thank you!
After studying the Level 7 Coaching and Mentoring course with you, I realised that I needed to be much more focused on the broader circumstances and needs of those I mentor. This has had a significant impact on the effectiveness of my mentoring, and as a result my MD has now asked me to run…

A great course! Enrolment was straightforward, the study materials easily accessible, support from support services always helpful, good advice about the assignments from the tutor – I was a bit worried about it being Online, but it worked well. I will recommend your management and leadership courses to other managers in my organisation.
I’ve just been promoted to Operations Manager – and I’m sure that gaining the postgraduate Level 6 M and L qualification was a big help. For sure what I learned will help me perform well in my new role.
Finished! Thanks for all the support your team gave me in studying for the Strategic Management and Leadership qualification. I’m now going to use it to enrol on a fast-tract MBA, and then my aim is to start my own business. It’s all looking more possible now thanks to you guys.
The unit by unit approach was good, it was very motivating to see progress being made as each assignment was successful. I was concerned that I wouldn’t manage such a high-level qualification as I was a relatively new senior manager but worked well, and I feel I have gained substantial knowledge which will be useful…
Thanks again for your help with the Strategic Management and Leadership Course – I’ve just completed an MSc in Project Management which your qualification enabled me to start, and was a good foundation of knowledge which I used on the Masters.
