CMI Level 7 Certificate in Strategic Management and Leadership Practice - Optional

The course content was interesting, engaging and relevant. Really great to have an up to date course aimed at Practice Managers in Primary Care. The pace of the course was excellent with masses of content but a good mix of theory, case study examples and group work.
