Apprenticeships

Leadership and Management apprenticeships are one of the most effective ways to develop the capabilities and boost the performance of managers and leaders.

What are Management Apprenticeships?

Management apprenticeships are a great way of developing new and existing managers - helping them to learn new skills and successfully apply them straight into the workplace. Apprenticeships offer both practical on-the-job experience, incorporating 20% of learners' time spent on off-the-job learning, allowing students to earn while they learn.

CMI offers complete end-to-end management apprenticeship solutions to deliver support for our learners, partners and providers. Whether that is support along the way, or in the delivery of the End Point Assessment (EPA.) Backed by a professional body with over 200,000 worldwide members ensures learners, providers and employers have access to a wealth of additional resources and benefits.
