Consider your on-going development as an interim professional, not just your functional expertise, to keep ahead of the competition. If you want more choice of assignments why not broaden your skill set?
Choose one or more of our 11 post-graduate courses below and complete in your own time on-line.
The strong link between course learning and your work practice creates relevant, enduring and transferable outcomes.
Each on-line course requires approximately 20 hours of your time in total, over whatever period suits you.
Course fees are a standard £495 for each 20-hr module. This is equivalent time-wise to 3 x full-day workshops and the learning is much richer than far more expensive three-day workshops.
The courses feature the distinctive strengths of The Open University from its years of expertise in work-based learning with Senior Executives, including:
Although there are no formal academic requirements to study any of our CPD courses, you are expected to have some experience in the field and the courses assume a familiarity with the subject.
For each course you can register and begin at any time during the life of the course. You can study at your own pace and submit your work-based activity at any date before the final submission date for the course. Information about the final submission date is available when you register for a course.
The course is delivered wholly online. Learners who use screen readers or who cannot use a mouse will not be able to access some course material or some course activities without assistance. Written transcripts of the audio interviews are available from the OU website (via the IMA Institute link).
All learning materials, exercises, study support and work-based activity are delivered entirely online.
A computer and access to the internet. You will also need to be a member of the IMA Institute and sign-in on-line.
The work-based activity for each course involves the preparation of a presentation, report or personal development plan based on the key activities undertaken throughout the course. Completed at the end of the course, an expert Learning Adviser will provide coaching feedback on your work.
This will allow you to reflect on your learning and how to use it in your professional work. The activity is suitably flexible to be appropriate for interim managers who may only have limited time in an organisation whilst they are undertaking a course.
Interim managers will find it helpful to aim to complete a course and its work-based activity whilst working within one client organisation.
We chose the Open University (OU) to work with us on your behalf, because they offer a unique set of world-recognised learning opportunities that are suitable for busy Interim Managers, providing targeted on-line modules that you can complete in your own time.
The Open University already caters to the continuing professional development (CPD) needs of thousands of executives and professionals by offering flexible, accessible and value-for-money courses which individuals can study in and around their work commitments.
I can now demonstrate to clients the value I offer over a permanent employee, not just through proven experience, but by independently-researched interim competencies. It provides academic validation to add to my marketing message.
The IMA is the professional membership body representing experienced and new career Interim Managers.
The aim of the IMA Institute is the promotion and development of interim management as a powerful and leading management resource by the collective action of its members and by promoting their common interests.
