CMI Level 6 in Management and Leadership Practice
This qualification bridges the gap between level 5 and and level 7 qualifications. Managers with operational management experience find this useful to ease into strategic management and leadership. Although there are a smaller choice of units, there are some really interesting options. You can take some of these units as part of those other qualifications too.
CMI Level 7 in Strategic Management and Leadership
This is the CMI flagship senior management qualification and one of our most popular qualifications. Choose from a wide range of units to develop a strategic view of organisations. Level 7 is very 'strategy' focussed; managers often find this quite a different skill set to what they knew as an operational manager.
CMI Level 7 in Leadership Coaching and Mentoring
These qualifications are designed for managers and leaders with responsibility for developing and implementing a coaching and mentoring strategy across the organisation. Build on your existing strategic management and leadership skills and to focus on the requirements of embedding coaching and mentoring into an organisation’s strategy.
CMI Level 7 in Diversity and Inclusion
This fantastic qualification gives you the structure to explore modern strategic approaches to diversity and inclusion. Start by looking at the nature of inequalities and possible interventions and approaches to measuring progress. Then use your own example / scenario to demonstrate your own strategy, interventions, metrics and approach to embedding the change.
CMI Level 7 in Mental Health and Wellbeing
This qualification is designed for individuals wishing to develop professional management and leadership practice, and who wish to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours to drive business activities and culture change as part of their senior management and leadership role.
CMI Level 7 in Entrepreneurial Practice
This qualification explores the principles of entrepreneurial practice applied across a range of modern contexts. Learn what is required for entrepreneurship to flourish and the characteristics of entrepreneurial leadership. Entrepreneurial practice covers several different perspectives including economic, management, sociological and psychological.
