This is a practical leadership and management training programme designed to help SMEs boost their business performance, resilience and long-term growth. It provides an excellent opportunity for SMEs to access a unique executive development programme in Northern Ireland.

Developed by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial strategy the course is designed to be undertaken alongside full-time work through a combination of online and face-to-face sessions. The programme duration is 12 weeks and 50 hours time commitment.

The practically focused, high quality curriculum supports SMEs to build capabilities in leadership, innovation, digital adoption, employee engagement, marketing, responsible business and financial management.
