Business and leadership

Elevate your business' performance, resilience, and long-term growth

Recognised for our business-facing ethos, we offer a diverse range of short courses and CPD opportunities in business and management. Designed to empower professionals, our courses provide opportunities to expand knowledge, improve workplace effectiveness, and in some instances, achieve our Business School CPD certification or progress towards professional qualifications.

Whether you opt for a statistics short course delivered by our Statistical Services and Consultancy Unit, dive into our CPD-accredited virtual courses, or apply for our Help to Grow: Management course, there are plenty of options awaiting to hone your skills in pivotal business areas. Areas include business essentials, small business development, people management, executive leadership, personal effectiveness, coaching and mentoring, and more.

While some courses can be tailored to meet your organisation's needs, others aid in formulating a tailored growth action plan for your business where you'll gain access to a supportive peer network for sharing practical challenges and ideas, along with personalised guidance from a business mentor to help apply your new-found knowledge.
