Who It’s For

Why Do This Course

The Jump Nobody Trains You For

Most people are promoted for doing the work well. Leading the people who do it is a different skill set.

Numbers Come With the Job

A whole certificate covers budgeting, cashflow and reading financial statements. Managers who can read a report get listened to.

The Hard People Stuff

Recruitment, staff training, discipline, grievances and complaints each get a topic. So does ethics and equity.

Where The Skills Fit

Where These Skills Could Take You

Supervisor and coordinator roles open up in every industry. What changes is the product, not the job of keeping people moving.

Team Leader

Sets priorities, gives feedback and keeps work on track.

Operations Supervisor

Watches workflow and performance across an area.

Project Coordinator

Tracks milestones and keeps people talking to each other.

Management Support Specialist

Backs up a management team with reporting and admin.

Leadership Development Assistant

Helps run training and development for staff.

Roles are examples of where these skills are used. They are not promised outcomes.
