This qualification aligns with the assessment requirements of the Chartered Manager (CMgr), meaning learners can progress on completion of their learning. Learners also need to complete additional reflections to become eligible for Embedded Chartered Manager (CMgr). 

 Below are the two activities learners are encouraged to complete to provide evidence of their application for learning and eligibility for Chartered Manager.

Chartered Manager Activity 1: Reflective Account - Requires the learner to reflect on the positive impact that this learning experience and becoming chartered would have on them. Evidence may include examples of work-based activities to support reflections (for example, appraisal and/or 360 feedback)

 

Chartered Manager Activity 2: Personal Development Plan - Requires the learner to identify 3 (THREE) medium to long-term development goals that they want to achieve within the next 12 to 18 months. 

Learners must request before enrolment to interchange unit(s) other than the preselected units shown in the SBTL website because we need to make sure the availability of learning materials for the requested unit(s). SBTL will reject an application if the learning materials for the requested interchange unit(s) are unavailable.
