I Manage a Team
Ready To Feel More Confident Managing People?
Leadership and management training designed for real workplace challenges, real teams, and real people.
You Might Be Here Because...
Managing people comes with pressure, responsibility, and constant learning.
You recently stepped into management
Delegation feels difficult
Difficult conversations feel uncomfortable
Team communication feels unclear
You feel pressure from all sides
You lack confidence as a manager
Leadership feels reactive
You want stronger organisational skills
Managing People Is A Different Skill
Many people are promoted into management without formal leadership training.
Managing workloads, communication, team dynamics, and performance all require new skills that develop over time.
Good managers are developed through support, experience, and practical learning.
What You’ll Learn
The goal is not simply becoming “the boss.”
It’s becoming a manager people trust and respond positively to.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are EMS courses fully funded?
Many EMS courses are fully funded, but funding depends on factors such as where you live, your current circumstances, and the programme you’re interested in.
We work with a range of funding providers across areas including Tees Valley, York & North Yorkshire, and the wider North East. This means funding opportunities can vary throughout the year.
The good news is that you don’t need to work it all out yourself. If you’re unsure whether you qualify, simply get in touch and we’ll explain what support may be available and recommend the most suitable options.
Many learners are pleasantly surprised to discover they are eligible for funded training.
Can I study while working?
Yes. Many of our learners complete training alongside full-time employment, self-employment, family commitments, or running a business.
Our courses are designed with real life in mind. We understand that finding time for personal development can be challenging, which is why we aim to make learning practical, manageable, and worthwhile.
Whether you’re looking to gain a qualification, improve your confidence, develop new skills, or prepare for a career change, we’ll help you find a course that fits around your commitments wherever possible.
If you’re unsure whether a particular course will work with your schedule, our team will be happy to talk through the options with you.
Are courses online or in person?
Most EMS courses are delivered face-to-face because we believe people learn best when they can interact with trainers, ask questions, share experiences, and learn alongside others.
Our courses are delivered in locations across Tees Valley, York & North Yorkshire, North East, and surrounding areas, making it easier for learners to access training close to home.
Some programmes are available online or through a blended approach, but the majority of our training takes place in the classroom. Many learners tell us they value the supportive environment, networking opportunities, and practical discussions that come from learning in person.
The delivery method for each course is clearly shown on the course page, and if you’re unsure which option is right for you, our team will be happy to help.
Will I receive a qualification?
Many EMS courses include recognised qualifications or certificates, while others focus on developing practical skills and knowledge that can be applied immediately.
The qualification you receive will depend on the course you choose.
Every course page clearly explains what is included, and our team can help you understand which qualifications may be most relevant to your goals.
More importantly, our focus is not just on gaining a certificate. We want you to leave with skills, confidence, and knowledge that you can put into practice straight away.
Not sure where to start?
That’s completely normal.
Many people contact EMS before they know exactly which course, qualification, or pathway is right for them. Some are exploring a new career. Others want to start a business, develop their skills, support their team, or simply understand what options are available.
You don’t need to know which course you need, what funding might be available, or even what your next step looks like.
Tell us a little about your situation and what you’re hoping to achieve. We’ll help you understand your options and point you towards the most suitable route.
Sometimes a short conversation is all it takes to make things much clearer.
