Do you work long hours? Do you get really involved in achieving your daily tasks but still missing deadlines? The early experience of the managers with whom we’ve worked on creating this online course proved that a scarce time management and the lack of a good clarity in planning and setting goals are the main reasons why most of us get exhausted at the end of the day and sometimes without accomplishing not even 10% of what we wanted to do.

The solution consists in a well-designed system that can help you finish your tasks in a shorter time and with less effort.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
