Senior Leader Apprenticeship
Designed for your team members to adopt strategic roles.
Level 7 Senior Leader Apprenticeship
The Level 7 Senior Leader Apprenticeship is a qualification aimed at individuals who are in, or moving into, strategic roles. It will support organisations who want to build leadership capacity within their team. We work closely with the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
The apprenticeship is a vocational part-time programme, which allows learners to study alongside work.
It combines personal and professional development with a focus on workplace performance allowing employees to utilise learning in the workplace throughout the programme.
The programme combines part-time blended learning with monthly on campus study blocks. These are up to 2 days per month during teaching time. We also provide online resources and activities.*
As a Level 7 Senior Leader Apprentice you will need to be able to evidence Skills, Knowledge and Behaviours against the apprenticeship standard.
The Level 7 Senior Leader Apprenticeship can be funded through the Apprenticeship Levy.
*Information is subject to change and will be in accordance with national guidelines.
Progression routes
A progression route is available on both pathways to achieve either the full Executive MBA qualification or the Strategic Leadership MSc at an additional cost. This progression route is not accessible through the Apprenticeship Levy. The Apprenticeship and progression to Master's study can be completed in 24 months.
