Designed for new and aspiring supervisors, team leaders, managers and business owners, this package provides practical management training for new managers covering the full employee lifecycle, from recruitment and onboarding through to probation management and staff development.

Five courses. Five certificates. One package.

Purchased separately, the five courses included in this package would cost £255. Buy the complete package for £179, saving you £76 (30%) while gaining a structured management training pathway from recruitment through to staff development.

Each course includes its own assessment and certificate, helping you build practical leadership and management skills while gaining recognised evidence of your learning.

Why choose this training package?

From recruiting the right candidate to supporting them through probation and ongoing development, managers play a vital role at every stage of employment. When these processes are unclear or inconsistent, organisations can face avoidable risks, including poor hiring decisions, weak documentation, low staff confidence, performance issues and difficult conversations later down the line.

This package brings together five complementary courses to help you:

• Recruit and select staff fairly and consistently
• Prepare for and conduct effective interviews
• Create structured and supportive staff inductions
• Manage probationary reviews with greater confidence
• Hold meaningful 1:1 meetings with staff
• Understand key HR basics for managers
• Apply learning in line with workplace policies and procedures
• Make better-informed people management decisions
