What certification will you get?

Uniquely we deliver 2 qualifications in one:

  • Level 7 Senior leaders Apprenticeship.
  • Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Leadership.

This means learners have more flexibility in deciding how they present their skills level, and it offers the opportunity to train managers who may not be eligible for an apprenticeship, on the same programme.

How does the funding work?

Management apprenticeships are funded through a levy scheme operated by HMRC which deducts 0.5% of annual payroll above £3 million. Employers can access this fund when they employ an approved Apprenticeship provider such as Cherith Simmons to deliver the programme.

Cherith Simmons can directly access the funding to pay for the apprentices’ training. Other schemes provide 95% funding for smaller organisations, which Cherith Simmons can access on your behalf.

Funding is currently worth £14,000.00 per apprentice making the training effectively free except for the accreditation fee.

What is the programme content?

The content for the Certificate and Diploma/Apprenticeship is shown below.

Practical outputs include work-based reports and projects which will enable leaders to tackle real workplace challenges, and thus combine study with work.

Certificate participants will also complete a work-based improvement report. Diploma/apprenticeship participants will complete a work-based project with significate strategic impacts. CLEVER Leadership programme incorporating the ILM Level 7 Certificate/Diploma/Apprenticeship
