About the course

Our associate project manager apprenticeship provides you with the skills and knowledge to help you become an effective and successful project manager.

We have designed the programme in partnership with specialist project management practitioners who work across the public, private and third sector on a daily basis supporting and managing large, complex projects.

This means that you’ll be provided with real industry knowledge and content with up to date thinking and best practice that is used by professionals today to help you to be an expert project manager too.

Is this course right for you?

Whether you’re already working on projects, working as a project manager or just starting out, our project manager apprenticeship will provide you with access to a wealth of knowledge that will underpin the development of your professional skills.

You’ll need to be involved in projects on a daily basis to be able to apply the learning and development of the programme into your day-to-day activities.

The programme covers the theory, skills, and behaviours of professional project management to help you succeed in your role. We have created a programme that includes time to understand the principles of structured project management and applying them to real project situations within your workplace so that learning goes beyond theory and is much more practical and useful in helping you develop your career.

It is great to see our apprentices progress, develop and work their way up through the project management community.

I love apprenticeships and what they can do for those involved in them.

I am a qualified teacher and worked in schools for 20 years, both secondary and primary. I reached the dizzy heights of Headteacher and moved 4 schools from Special Measures to Good during the final 6 years.

I now use my skills to develop the project management skills of my learners, who come from a wide range of backgrounds. There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing them flourish and bloom during the course of their studies with us and their work placements.
I only work part time now, so I have plenty of opportunity to get out and about in the Staffordshire countryside with my beautiful little dog, Truffle.
