Learning

Outline

Whether you aspire to be a CEO, a life coach or the future leader of your country, this course will guide you through the key concepts and ethics of leadership, before focusing on the practical skills every great leader needs to succeed. With a professional tutor you’ll look at case studies and discuss the various methods, skills and characteristics essential for leadership, and how to use those skills to grow and motivate others.

Teaching methodology

Learning in a small group (no more than 15 students and often fewer), as well as 1:1 or 2:1 tutorials, means that you get quality time with your tutor and the chance to ask all your most pressing questions. Through interactive learning, our tutors will guide you through new concepts and assign you practise tasks to build your knowledge and skills. You will also have an opportunity for group work, independent research, and homework assignments to be discussed in class. Small classes mean everyone gets to have their say, and students learn from debating with one another, as well as from their tutor. You’ll take part in academic workshops that will build your transferable skills are help you prepare for your academic career.

The Experience

Students take part in 27 hours of learning from their teachers in small groups and 1:1 or 2:1 tutorials, challenging them in thought-provoking, intensive courses. Class sizes are no more than 15 students, giving you personalised attention from a tutor at the top of their field.

You’ll also get the chance to learn first-hand from industry experts during our TED-style talks and academic workshops. You’ll leave the course feeling inspired, with a greater understanding of what it will take to succeed.
