Level 4+
Operations/Departmental Manager Level 5 Apprenticeship
COURSE OVERVIEW
Equivalent to a foundation degree, this is an essential course for middle managers. We are using the current ILM Level Diploma for Operational Leaders and Managers as the on-programme syllabus, so therefore this course is now shorter (than the 2017 version.) The seven units are covered in just 19-months, with the End Point Assessment taking five months for the apprentice to run and present a work based project and showcase their Skills portfolio.
Delivered by subject specialist tutors over 19-months in term time: monthly face-to-face workshops at Chichester College and monthly remote tutorials (via MS Teams), followed by End Point Assessment.
In your contracted hours, you will need a minimum of 8 hours every week of the course for study and maintaining your Learner Journal in OneFile.
