ILM Level 3 Award in Leadership and Management

What people are saying

Gill and Julia were always available to give advice and direction, their feedback was invaluable. I found it useful to keep a reflective journal and was able to draw on this when being assessed for each of the 4 modules. It also gave each of us different ways to be assessed; I liked to keep a reflective journal which I submitted at the end of the module and then had a face to face interview or a telephone interview to demonstrate my competency. Completion of the ILM has had a positive impact on the way I manage my staff. I am mindful that my behaviours will have an effect on the people I manage and that you cannot have the same style and will have to adapt to the individual. I find that I am continually reflecting on how I respond to my staff.

I immediately started to use what I learned in my role. Literally the next day. The material is obvious when discussed in a classroom setting, generally being a common-sense approach, but it was great to explain these areas in a safe environment, before being approached with some challenging situations soon after completing the course. It is easy to not necessarily do the best course of action in ‘the real world’ when faced with a situation, but this course was a great prep tool to give me the confidence I could engage in these challenging events. The flexibility of my assessment was fantastic. The ability to mix written and spoken assessment meant that I could develop both skills, and dive more into my experiences in different formats. It was great to have the time to think about my answers and be able to respond at a later date, and the conversation format was incredibly useful to dissect my views and evaluate my answers.

Very supportive both at the training event and after! They identified areas where I needed to improve regarding my essay/answers and were helpful with me achieving my best results.

The support given was great and the flexibility was adult and non-pushy or patronising. I handed in both my assignments that were marked and the feedback was constructive and positive helping me to learn how to put it in place. To date I am putting in to place what I have learnt. I would totally recommend the company to others as it has to be one of the best put together courses I have been on.
