Dear Member,
We are already half way through our business year and I am pleased to tell you that registrations are already up by 6% on the last year and we've already helped over 16,000 aspiring and career managers develop and qualify their management and leadership skills.
Tomorrow we launch the new Chartered Management Degree Apprenticeship at the House of Commons. But we're not stopping there. We're looking to develop this further with a wider set of apprenticeships. In order to make this happen Government is seeking further employer support via an online consultation.
We continue to improve as we listen to your suggestions and encouragement. I'm pleased to announce that demand is strong for our new level 4 NVQ apprentice qualification and for your endorsement we can provide bespoke training through Recognised Programmes. You may also have noticed that we have simplified access to all our website resources, I'm sure you'll be pleased with the results. To help navigate around the new pages we have produced a video, see more in the story below.
Elsewhere you’ll find details of our latest free member webinar, our latest session focuses on how to lead and coach remote workers, please feel free to share this with your learners. You can also find out more about Richard Kirk CMgr MCMI in the latest instalment of our “Meet the Chartered Manager” series and details of the final 25 books shortlisted for the CMI Management Book of the Year.
There will be more to tell you through the coming months, in the meantime, please keep sending us your thoughts and suggestions which we will develop to strengthen our partnership.
Best Wishes, Steve Heappey CMgr FCMI Director of Qualifications and Service Delivery

Thousands of managers at all levels and across all sectors have achieved Chartered Manager.

Earlier this year we wrote to Centres notifying them that we intend to withdraw some of the Assessor and Internal Quality Assurance qualifications due to low uptake.
However, we have listened to your recent feedback and it is clear that there is a demand for these qualifications, so we have decided to extend these qualifications until December 2016, in line with other QA qualifications.
If you have already got approval for any these qualifications, there is nothing you need to do as your approval will continue.
For information on CMI’s Quality Assurance qualifications please click here.
In November 2015 we will be launching our new SCQF qualifications, to replace those already offered at CMI Centres.
These new qualifications have been developed to align with other UK frameworks, and are aimed at providing more opportunities for learners to develop at the pace they want, with the introduction of the new smaller Diplomas at SCQF Level 8 & 11 and the rebranding of the Extended Diplomas.
Also new for the SCQF qualifications are the introduction of the Good Practice guides, an optional tool for Centres and Learners to use to support delivery and assessment of their qualifications, as well as CMI Assignment Briefs.
SCQF Level 11
Further information will be sent to Centres directly, but if you have any queries about these qualifications please feel free to contact your Customer Relationship Executive on 01536 207496 or via qualifications@managers.org.uk.
The following qualifications have expired or are due to expire for registration in the coming months. Please keep note of the last certification date, as it is important to ensure all work is assessed and verified before this date:
The following qualifications have been withdrawn for some time, and their last certification date is approaching. Please ensure that any current learners on these qualifications have been assessed, internally verified and signed off by CMI – after this date CMI will not be able to certificate learners on these qualifications.
If you find you have any issues meeting this deadline, please speak to your Quality Manager as soon as possible.
