CIPD Leadership and Management (L&M)

What is L&M?

L&M provides you with an outstanding management qualification that has been designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to achieve excellent results as a manager, for both yourself and other people; plus understand the contribution that HR professionals can make at boardroom/strategic level.

L&M consists of four modules, which are

• Managing for Results
• Managing in a Strategic Business Context
• Managing Information for Competitive Advantage
• Managing and Leading People

How is the course delivered?

The course is delivered through flexible learning, consisting of

• two full day introductory workshops
• eight full day workshops
• one personal tutorial
• one full day examination preparation workshop
• self-study using CIPD/MOL flexible learning materials, including access to a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) developed by CIPD and MOL for all learners undertaking the CIPD Flexible Learning⁺. This interactive learning aid provides opportunities to network with course colleagues and gives access to a variety of additional resources at no extra cost
• tutor support via email, fax or telephone

MOL breaks the course down so that you only study two modules at once (over a six month period) followed by the next two.

Where do the workshops take place?

MOL has delivery venues throughout the UK.

We can also run in-house company training on your organisation's premises (UK and international). Please see our information about bespoke training for your business.

How long does the course last?

Twelve months

How will I be assessed?

You will need to attend all the workshops. You will also need to complete

• four assignments (one per module)
• four CIPD national examinations (one per module)

Owing to how MOL breaks down the course, you will only study two modules and only do two assignments at once, plus only two examinations, over the initial six month period.
