Work Management and Administration Course

 

The Work Management and Administration course for school administrators is a distance learning programme – which means you can undertake the course without taking any time off work.

 

The programme lasts for two months and consists of three units covering three vital areas of school administration…

 

• Time Management;
• Stress Management;
• Dealing with School Visitors

 

Students participate in on-line tutorials on each of the three units of the course. These are not assessed in terms of marks, but participation is compulsory as they represent an opportunity for students to discuss the course content with colleagues from around the country.

 

Students have repeatedly reported that the on-line tutorials via the virtual learning environment are particularly useful as they allow them an insight into school administration in other schools and also allow them to discuss the course and the assignments with other students.

 

Within the course you must also write one essay from a choice of topics at the end of the course.  Once you have passed this course you will be able (if you wish) to join the full National Certificate course, obtaining an exemption from Module 2 (Work Management) and a reduction in the overall fees.

 

The printed prospectus of the course can be obtained by emailing Prospectus@admin.org.uk  or by phoning 01536 399 007.   The prospectus of both this and the full one year course are available on line at http://www.admin.org.uk/Prospectus.pdf

 

The next intake for the two month Work Management and Administration course starts on 22 February 2010 – with the closing date for applications being is 12 February.
