Transition into supervision and management with skills, knowledge and confidence

As a new or aspiring manager, the role of supervision and management can be both exciting and challenging. To succeed, you will need people management knowledge and skills, coupled with process management practical tools. This is the backdrop for designing and developing a tailored course to help technicians feel and become confident in stepping into supervision and management.

Throughout the programme participants will be expected to apply the concepts and techniques taught to work-related situations in order to enhance their learning for effective transition from a specialist to manager.

This two day course is delivered over 2 consecutive weeks by a highly experienced technical management practitioner with 30+ years of experience in higher education, both in Russell Group and post-92 universities.

The course has been designed to accommodate various learning styles and to allow participants to learn from theory and practice, group discussions and individual reflection on their current practice. It will utilise formative assessments to increase learner knowledge, competency and confidence; enabling and empowering them to implement learnt skills in their work.
