The Essentials of Management comprises seven face-to face training days and the support of a personal coach.

You will start the programme by attending a 3- day course – An Introduction to Management – and over the next nine months will:

• complete an optional 180-degree feedback development tool to help assess progress and learning
• attend a further four training days
• have access to a personal coach for up to 8 hours to support their individual development. Support is by phone and email
• have access to the Online Learner Support Site for 12 months
• participate in facilitated online discussions
• have access to People Management online (CIPD’s online magazine) for 3 months.

If you have a group of people who require training, this course is particularly suited to in-house delivery.
