Graduate Profile
The Institute's learning methodology is one of applying adult learning principles within non-judgemental, self-directed parameters. This focuses on participants' professional developmental needs and their capacity to add value to their organisation through an applied case study problem-solving approach. Within this learning environment, participants can retreat from their organisational responsibilities, undertake critical self-reflection and have the opportunity to analyse strategic issues in leadership and management, debate alternative solutions to issues and develop professional networks.
