This accredited qualification is fully funded by European money and gives churches and other Christian organisations the chance to receive high quality management development training designed specifically for those working in voluntary and community organisations.

“T  he course is great for anyone who will benefit from understanding how effective management skills can be implemented into their work areas; especially church leaders, youth workers, managers of charitable organisations and anyone wanting to progress into a management role in the future.”
The qualification is made up of four units. Each unit consists of a one-day workshop followed by a half day Action Learning Set. There are no exams and your progress will be assessed by writing short reports and preparing some presentations.
