Leaders and Managers get improved online support from ILM

The Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) - the largest management development organisation in Europe, has launched a new and enhanced website designed specifically to meet the needs of busy managers, employers and development professionals.

Features of the new ILM website (http://www.i-l-m.com/) include:

• A complete training sourcing package for managers and training buyers, which allows users to browse ILM's extensive portfolio of qualifications and select the programme and training provider that best meets their development needs.
• Online registration and payment making it quicker and easier than ever to join ILM's fast-growing membership of over 30,000 ambitious leaders and managers.
• An enhanced members' area providing access to a wide range of specialist information, applications and resources designed to support and encourage the career-long professional development for leaders and managers of all levels.
• Qualifications and membership grade decision trees allow managers to assess their training needs and identify the appropriate ILM qualification and membership grade to support their ongoing development.
• Far more powerful site search functionality in order to find key information fast.
• Dedicated area for ILM studying members offering tailored study support options including a huge new range of downloadable material and online resources like e-books and e-journals.
• Downloadable support resources and information for ILM's 2000 plus approved centres - spanning employers, business schools, universities, FE colleges and private training providers.

Sam Dukes, ILM's Senior Communications Manager who has overseen the new site's development said:

"The redeveloped ILM site is far more accessible and user friendly for visitors and enables them to easily find relevant information as-and-when necessary.

The project has been a great opportunity to build in features that managers, training providers and learners have requested, we have updated and migrated thousands of documents, links and media files in order to make this the first stop for news, good practice and quality vocational management training."
