A study by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) reveals that 82% of managers in the UK lack formal management or leadership training, often referred to as "accidental managers." This program, equivalent to a Level 4 award, is designed to equip learners with the essential skills needed to embark on their management journey.

‘Elevate’ is a management training course designed to equip newly appointed managers or deputies, with the skills and knowledge they need to effectively lead and manage teams.
