What our 2024 programme alumni say

Our Leadership programme alumni have gained knowledge and skills and most importantly, the confidence and motivation to apply them within their working practices. 

“[I’ve] used what I learnt to help me go through an 18 month planning phase with my directorate” - Leading at Manchester

“The facilitation was great & and it has been very helpful to talk to other people facing the same management challenges as myself.” - Managing at Manchester

“A really excellent course - it's honestly changed my life. I would strongly recommend it to any academic transitioning (or thinking of transitioning) into research independence.” - Leading for Research Fellows

“I really enjoyed the course and I am sad it is over. It has prepared me to take the next steps in my career, both in confidence and having resources that I can use, and has helped me to build a larger network with people at the University .” - Managing at Manchester for Researchers
