Looking for something that is not listed? Talk to our team about the wider range of funded and commercial qualifications we deliver.
Capability and improvement funded by the Growth and Skills levy.
Built around multiple live projects, so improvements land in the business while the qualification runs rather than after it.
You develop the people who already understand your processes, rather than buying in expertise that leaves.
Funded entirely from the Growth and Skills levy you are already paying, which otherwise expires after twelve months.
Progress, evidence of learning and manager-reported impact across every cohort, drawn from our reporting suite.
money you lose.
Funds expire twelve months after they enter your digital account and return to the government. It is money you have already paid.
From launch to enrolment.
We support the internal launch with animations, briefing sessions and comms your people actually engage with.
Live sessions that show teams what the qualification involves and who it is right for, so applications come from the right people.
Online briefings for managers and applicants, then a skills scan with each applicant and their line manager to confirm the role gives scope to evidence the standard.
Our team runs the paperwork and initial assessments directly with your people, with continuous updates on progress through to enrolment.
Getting a cohort off the ground is the part employers worry about most and, in practice, the part we carry most of.
More than a qualification. A network.
As an RTB client, you and your teams get more than the qualification itself. Through our network of 900+ speakers and experts, your people get live webinars running alongside their qualification, events, resources and the chance to book global experts directly.
Over 900 practising specialists and globally recognised experts, available to book directly.
Marketing the programme internally
Can you help us promote the programme to our people? +
Yes. We provide launch copy and programme overviews you can put on your intranet or in a newsletter, an eligibility summary so people can self-assess before applying, and the workshop schedule so the commitment is clear from the outset.
Everything is written in plain English and can be co-branded with your organisation.
Will you run sessions for interested employees? +
We run open information sessions for prospective apprentices, in person or online, covering what the programme involves, the time commitment, and how assessment works. These sessions consistently improve the quality of applications, because people arrive on programme knowing what they signed up for.
How do you get line managers on board? +
Manager briefings before the cohort starts, then regular webinars planned specifically for apprentices and managers during the programme, to complement the work being undertaken.
Managers are clear from the start on what off-the-job learning means for their rota, what happens in the eight-weekly reviews, and how to spot opportunities in the day job that count towards the programme.
Can you help us build the internal business case? +
We will help you frame the case for your executive: the capability gap the cohort addresses, how it is funded from levy you are already paying, what the programme asks of the business in time, and the impact measures we will report against. Once the first cohort is running, their progress and the impact reported by their managers becomes the evidence for the next one.
Questions about a specific programme, including duration, the workplace project and how it is assessed, are answered on each qualification page: Improvement Technician, Business Administrator, AI and Automation Practitioner, Associate Project Manager, Excelling in Professional Coaching and Women in Leadership.
