Diploma in Self-Managed Development and Career Advancement Skills - Level 3

(For 16 - 18 yrs)

“Finding Your Success Factor!”  We all have hidden talents – Self Managed Development and Career Advancement Skills helps you discover yours!

Over the last five years iMinds had been developing dipolmas at two levels (16-18 & 18 - 30) in Self-Managed Development Skills specifically for young people.  This is in response to a growing body of demand for practical skills in managing Life and a Career to enhance and maximize academic potential and qualifications.

This unique programme supports individuals to realise skills, experience and qualifications that are not currently accredited within the educational framework.

It helps individuals to formally develop transferrable skills through the normal passage of their studies and it awards them with a qualification which recognises the development of those skills and experiences.  These are converted into real currency terms of employment and career potential through their Personal Development Profile (PDP).

The Level 3 Dipolma runs alongside GCSE courses and is an additional practical qualification that advances and accelerates career preparation, success and life learning skills. The assignments dovetail with academic requirements, career exploration, work experience and so forth.  Young people gain many experiences and valuable expertise, this qualification enables these life experiences to have real “currency”.   Diplomatists are able to enter the employment workplace equipped with recognisable transferrable skills that employers need and the PDP allows employers to better evaluate the contribution that the recruit is able to bring to their organisation.

This is much more than “life skills”, it’s the opportunity to prove how much can be achieved on a daily basis, providing first hand evidence for all to see.
