Level 4 NVQ - Management   Course description The NVQ in Management at Level 4 is aimed at middle managers. If you are an experienced manager with previous management training, you can gain accreditation for your current skills and experience via our highly regarded professional discussion route. Who will benefit from this course? Working with one of our experienced assessors in your workplace, you describe how what you do matches up to nationally recognised standards of good practice. You then back up your verbal reports with evidence produced from your day-to-day work - reports, memos, e-mail trails, etc. Your assessor will highlight your strengths and indicate areas where you could usefully develop or update your practice. You will find this is a much quicker, yet satisfying, approach to achieving an NVQ than the usual ‘portfolio’ approach. Duration of the course Flexible Outline The standards are divided into work roles, called ‘units’, which are further divided into job tasks, called ‘elements’. Each element then has ‘performance criteria’ which describe how that job task should be undertaken. The following are the core, mandatory units for the NVQ: Manage activities to meet requirements Contribute to improvements at work Develop your own resources Develop productive working relationships Provide information to support decision making Manage the use of physical resources Manage the use of financial resources In addition, you choose 3 from a choice of optional units that most closely match your workplace activity: Select personnel for activities Develop teams and individuals to enhance performance Manage the performance of teams and individuals Respond to poor performance within your team Facilitate meetings Provide advice and support for the development and implementation of quality policies Implement quality assurance systems Monitor compliance with quality systems Carry out quality audits Contribute to project planning and preparation Co-ordinate the running of projects Contribute to project closure BACK
