International Management Qualifications are Centre assessed using Standard criteria – with ILM verification taking place in THRDGLs office in Nottingham.

See Assessment Forms – Appendix 3 & 4.

1. learning hours = 65 full – 22 introduction. Tutor’s will amalgamate the workshop hours (from the attendance register) with the system generated CPD hours displayed in the ‘Personal Records - Record CPD Hours’ – review sessions do not qualify.
2. a short presentation (full only) – for blended courses the presentation will be assessed by the centre face to face - in the case of fully distant learning the candidate is to submit a presentation on video.

The presentation should focus on either:

an explanation of how learning derived from the programme has been applied in work, and the positive outcomes of this, or
a simulated team briefing – perhaps using a real issue from the workplace, or adapting some element of the programme

In each case, knowledge should be clearly demonstrated, together with appropriate communication skills, and an ability to select relevant material and present it effectively

The presentation should last a minimum of 5 minutes. Written outline notes, cue cards or visual aids must be available to the External Verifier to evidence the candidate’s planning and preparation processes.

Candidates are required to achieve a minimum of half the available marks against each of the following criteria:

• Select relevant information prior to briefing/presenting (15 marks)
• Plan and prepare an effective briefing/presentation (30 marks)
• Conduct effective team briefing/presentation (40marks)
• Use appropriate communication methods for checking understanding (15 marks)

3. mini project (full only) – centred assessed (external for framework courses)
   
   NB8: A mini-Project guideline is attached to the last eprogramme session.
4. knowledge verification – (full only) - Effective team leadership is best underpinned by sound knowledge, and this forms the rationale for this assessment component.

Each module has an optional knowledge verification multi-answer quiz with a pass level of 50%. Candidates must answer 80 questions out of a random bank of 187 covering 25 segments and get 40 correct.
In addition 20 short answer questions (defined as “questions with a pre-determined answer of no more than a few words”) will be set in classroom exam conditions at the end of the programme for the full certificate. All questions must be answered in a maximum of 120 minutes. The pass mark is 60%

NB9:
A Knowledge Test guideline is attached to the last eprogramme session.

NB10:
For the introduction certificate 12 questions in 1 hour with 60% pass mark. In regard to assessment the classroom exam will be externally assessed for introductory courses – framework only - but internally assessed for standard programmes and the full framework.

5. learning segments – the tutor will analyse successfully completed ebriefings for segment compliance – see Appendix 3.
6. reflective learning – (full only) participants must complete 4 PDP’s achieve via 2 forms Customise Plan and Record CPD Hours.
