Who these courses are for

These virtual CMI management qualifications are perfect for ambitious people who are thinking about moving up the career ladder, or have recently been promoted and want to develop leadership and management skills in a bite-sized way.

Leadership and management courses are typically seen as being created for white-collar workers - those in office roles. However, we disagree. Whether you're in an office, warehouse or out in the field, the same skills are needed to effectively manage teams and productivity.

Topping up to a professional qualification

CMI Bitesize has been designed to be flexible and minimise any disruption to work/life balance, but we understand that some managers may want to do more, which is why these series are aligned with the Level 5 qualification in Management and Leadership. Full support is available for Learners and Partners at every step.
