2-DAY WORKSHOPS

Level 3 Leadership & Management 2 day work shopParticipants will learn new skills, tools and behaviours to maximise their potential as leaders and managers. They will have the opportunity to practice using the tools in a safe, facilitator led environment, whilst bouncing ideas off colleagues learning the same skills.

INTUITIVE & PRACTICAL ONLINE LEARNING

Between the face to face workshops, participants will be required to login to the Fuel Hub, where they will be guided through an intuitive series of learning modules, designed to build greater knowledge and comprehension of leading and managing.
The participants will have access to many templates and tools they can use to support application of the learning back at work.

OPTIONAL LEARNER DAYS

If required, participants will have the opportunity to attend additional support days, designed to ensure they are able to complete their workplace application tasks at the required standards.
Learner days are not mandatory and will only be applied to participants who want additional support.

COACHING & CONTINUED SUPPORT

In addition to the face to face workshops and optional learner days, participants will have access to their programme facilitator and the Fuel quality team via phone, email, video call and scheduled meetings throughout the programme duration.

PROGRESS REVIEW PARTICIPATION

In addition to the coaching and support from Fuel, throughout the programme participants will be supported by their line manager.
To ensure the participant is on track and getting the required opportunity to grow and develop their skills, they will participate in a conference call with their line manager and the Fuel team. This will happen approximately every 12 weeks and will be scheduled in advance.

END POINT ASSESSMENT

The last stage of the Level 3 Leadership & Management Apprenticeship is an End Point Assessment (EPA). This a simple process designed to formally recognise the significant development and effort of the participants.
Successful completion will give the participants a nationally recognised level 3 certificate.

PERSONAL BENEFITS

LEVEL 3 LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT WORKSHOPS OVERVIEWS

The face to face workshop modules are designed to be fully interactive, engaging and fun. Each day is split into 4 mini sections with a review and application planning session at the end of each. This bite-size approach keeps the participants focused and engaged throughout the day. The regular reviews and action planning ensures the participants have a clear approach to applying their learning in the workplace. It is advisable for participants to bring laptops to the sessions. Fuel can provide laptops when necessary.

INITIAL ENGAGEMENT & INDUCTION

INITIAL ENGAGEMENT & INDUCTION

The initial engagement and induction are designed to ensure the participants have a full understanding of the apprenticeship programme, the required commitments, the support from their organisation and line manager. Participants will complete most of the induction, such as providing the required personal data, via the Fuel Hub. This is a secure digital process and starts the participant on their journey to starting their programme.

The first module focuses on setting the scene for the level 3 apprenticeship and starts the individual on their development journey. Learners start to explore what makes a great manager and identify areas of focus for the programme. In order to meet the demands of an ever-changing workplace, individuals need to ensure they continue to update and develop their knowledge and skills. By using the knowledge gained through exploring the management traps managers can fall into, recognising individual triggers and understanding personal behavioural drivers, a meaningful development plan will be created to support them to become an effective manager in the workplace.

Developing relationships with internal and external stakeholders is an essential management skill. This module will equip managers to identify and understand stakeholder’s needs, know the purpose and benefits of building relationships with different stakeholder groups, and the methods of communicating with them to achieve results. Our Situational Thinking Style tool gives participants the opportunity to explore the way they process information and how that may be complimentary or contradictory to others. Using this model enables individuals to assess a person’s style and adapt or mirror the style, how to look for conflicting styles and make necessary adjustments to ensure they can effectively collaborate with others.

Testimonials

The programme was delivered in a refreshing way that seemed to cater to multiple strong personalities. There was enough information to sink your teeth into throughout.

The instructors have amazing subject knowledge and move their teaching styles based on who is asking the question. Even being quite outspoken and strong willed, I felt like the points I raised were effectively shifted to group discussion.
