  • We run ILM accredited Leadership and Management courses at Degree and Masters level, and offer several business improvement-focused ‘Endorsed Awards’ under the approval of the ILM.
  • Through our international subsidiary, British School of Coaching (www.britishschoolofcoaching.com), we have developed and delivered accredited ILM coaching qualifications. We are proud of the highly practitioner focused programmes together with the balance of appropriate theory and underpinning knowledge. The key feature of the BSC ILM Level 3, 5 and 7 Coaching Programmes is supervision. This provides real time support, for both Coach and Coachee, the organisation and most importantly provides the quality assurance we believe is necessary for Coaches to be their most effective.
