ILM Level 4 Award Leadership and Management

Why choose us?

This course has been specifically designed to develop the leadership and management skills for those working or volunteering in the community & voluntary sector. We use actual case studies and experiences to contextualise your learning.

Volunteer Cornwall has been successfully delivering Volunteer Management qualifications since 2012 and this ILM course is an exciting new addition to our programme of volunteer management courses and workshops.

About this course

This Level 4 course in Leadership & Management has been developed to provide an initial training programme for those interested in a volunteer management role within the voluntary, community, public and private sectors.

The course is delivered over four days. To enable learners to fit the course around their work we have spread the course out to be delivered one day a week with a gap week between each session to provide additional time for any self learning or questions.

ESF Funding Available!

We can now offer learners access to the last of the ESF funding. Volunteer Cornwall is working with the VCSE Learning Academy (led and supported by the Voluntary Sector Forum) to offer you the opportunity for some FREE training.

This is time limited until the summer so book your place NOW to guarantee your fully funded qualification. This is the END of ESF!
