Interview is mandatory for most students before getting enrolled on a course, except CPD courses and training events where no interview will be required. The interview is usually very easy to pass and is conducted to make sure that the learner is eligible and capable of undertaking their desired course.
There is no upper age restriction. However, some awarding bodies require the learners to be a minimum of 16 years old for Level 3 and above courses. Please visit the course information page of your desired course for more information
We are currently offering courses through a Virtual Learning Environment (Moodle).You don’t need to attend any physical classes. You can study from the comfort of your home at the time of your own convenience. However, you will be able to book a 1-2-1 session with your tutor if you need any specific help.
We offer free career advice to all those who are in the process of course selection. Our advisory team will assess your eligibility, past qualifications/experiences and future interests to recommend the best course for you.
For further assistance, please contact us at support@schoolofleadership.co.uk.
COVID-19 is a very serious issue and we are treating it as such. Our staff are working from home to ensure that they can stay safe while still providing learners with the support they need. We are working around the clock to ensure that there are no interruptions to learner progress.
Coupon codes are applied to our tuition fee. The discounts are not applicable to the awarding body fees, as they are payable in full to the awarding organisations such as OTHM and NCFE.
AT BSLM, learners do not have to complete any online group projects. All assessments are meant to be completed by the individual learners on their own.
Once you have picked your course and paid the course fee, a member of our admission team will send you your enrolment form and subsequently review your documents to verify your eligibility. You may get a call for a short interview. Once all of this is done, you will be given access to the course using our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) called Moodle. The entire process takes a maximum of three days.
Note: Please see terms and conditions for fee refund policy.
Total Qualification Time (TQT) is a term used within qualifications regulated by Ofqual as part of the Regulated Qualification Framework (RQF). It aims to provide users of qualifications with an indication of the minimum length of time it would take the average learner to complete their qualification.
Guided Learning Hours’ are the number hours of learning required for each CEFR level under the immediate guidance or supervision of a lecturer, supervisor, tutor or another appropriate provider of education or training.
Please note that the actual time taken by the learner will vary and will depend on the individual effort and hard-work of the learner.
All students are provided with an induction to better understand the assessment process. You will also be given access to blogs written on how to do your best when preparing for your coursework. If you still need any help, you may contact your tutor to arrange a 30-minute ‘assignment preparation’ session with your course tutor.
Students can complete the course at their own pace. On average, a 60 credits course can take 6 months to complete. However, learners are allowed to complete the same in 3 months if they are willing to put the effort into it. This in fact is a great advantage of doing the course online with us.
Every course has defined credits that should be completed to complete the course successfully. For course credits, please refer to the course outline of the specified course.
All our qualifications are regulated by Ofqual (The Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation). This means that our courses are fully recognised in the UK and are globally respected.
Each course is split into units that are also called modules. In some jurisdictions, modules might be referred to as units. Please refer to the relevant course page to find out how many modules are there in your course. Our courses are delivered in such a way that a learner may only study one module at a time. Once you have completed the module, you will be given access to the next module and so on.
All the course materials are provided through our online learning platform. It is up to the learners to decide on whether they want to buy additional study material, however, we do not require this.
While it is possible, BSLM recommends that only one course is completed at a time. If you have any questions or want to discuss this further, please feel free to contact your tutor or the support team.
BSLM will continue to provide the required support until you have completed the module. If you are required to resubmit the coursework, you will be adequately guided on what improvements are required
The course material can be accessed through our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) called Moodle. If your module has printed materials, you will be able to download these electronically

Please contact us at support@schoolofleadership.co.uk.
CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development, and it is the term used to describe the learning activities professionals engage in to develop and enhance their current capabilities and skills.
CPD ensures that you maintain and enhance the knowledge and skills that you need to deliver a professional service to your existing and future clients. It is an important pre-requisite for most job applications and career progression opportunities.
All professionals working in any sector will need to undertake regular CPDs. The CPD can take form of accredited courses, workshops, seminars, unaccredited online courses, conferences, and training events. The CPD courses that we advertise are auto-delivered and auto-marked unaccredited courses.
Yes, you will receive a downloadable certificate upon completion for all BSLM CPD courses. All courses can be completed earlier than the agreed timelines.
No, our CPD courses are not accredited at this stage. Please be aware that most centres advertising accredited courses are in-fact NOT accredited by an awarding organisation but rather unregulated organisations that do not hold a mandate to accredit courses. Our approach is to be completely honest and transparent about this.
Once your registration has been completed, you can commence your course immediately. You may complete the course on the same day and print the certificate too right away.
The whole idea of CPD is to continue acquiring additional knowledge and skills, which is very much the idea behind our CPD courses. There is no requirement for CPD to be accredited so you are not losing out on anything.
You will be required to pass a quiz upon completion of the CPD course. The quiz will test your understanding of what you have learnt on the course. If you do not pass the quiz in the first attempt, you will be allowed to reattempt the quiz as many times as you wish.

Online learning allows you to complete the course in your own time and at your own pace. Online learning gives you an opportunity to manage study/work balance. The cost of our online courses is much less as compared to the same courses studied on campus. The ultimate certification you get will still be exactly the same regardless of how the learning took place.
The learner will need to have access to a PC or Laptop with a decent internet connection. These requirements are very easy to meet, but please do get in touch if you have any concerns.
Yes, employers now realize that a large proportion of students will choose to do online qualifications instead of face to face. In fact, many employers will give preference to this option as it shows that the candidates are self-motivated and can work off of their own initiative.
All our courses are fully accredited and regulated by Ofqual (The Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation) and the certification you get will still be exactly be the same regardless of how the learning took place.
Each course presents its own specific benefits. When choosing a course, you might want to consider:
If you are in doubt, please feel free to contact our student support team.
Yes, this is one of the many advantages of doing a course online with BSLM. All our courses are self-paced so you can continue your course when you return from vacation, or you can access your course content via your laptop.
Learners are expected to be self-motivated and disciplined when undertaking any course online. They need to be able to work independently and carry out their own research online to find answers. If they are stuck, of course the tutors are there to guide them through 1-2-1 sessions.
BSLM recognizes that any of our potential students have many options when it comes to choosing their online learning platform. However, at BSLM, we feel that all our courses are competitively priced while also providing excellent student support services.
Again, this is one of the main advantages of participating in an online course as all courses run by BSLM are self-paced. When you become ill, you will not fall behind on course material, and you can simply log back in when you feel better and commence your course where you last left off.
