RECOGNITION AND ACCREDITATION
In conjunction with the University of Teesside, we are able to offer two main options for accreditation and/or recognition of most of our leadership and management programmes.
Option 1 is a University of Teesside Certificate of Recognition. This acknowledges that you have been through a University recognised programme of training. No assessment or additional work is required. It is best suited to those who require evidence of their participation in the training programme for their CPD record.
Option 2 isthe Integrated Action Research project. This involves enrolment with the University and successful completion of a work-based project. It is best suited to those interested in gaining transferable M level credits towards a Masters Degree.
