Provider overview

We specialise in leadership & management and develop people to achieve excellence in leadership, supporting their career potential and helping to enrich their working life and that of the teams they lead and manage.

The University Centre specialises in supporting existing employees at all levels, as well as those that favour a vocational rather than an academic university education. Our apprenticeships always include a strong focus on experiential learning, and contextualisation of assignments directly related to an individual's job role.

UCQ is excited to dovetail experienced apprenticeship delivery and be one of the first to offer the Level 6 Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship (CMDA).
