Training for excellence

The Professional Diploma in Management Studies

The Manchester NTI website is now managed by The Manchester College. Our aim is to boost the regional supply of IT, management and enterprise skills and to transfer this knowledge to local businesses. We work in partnership with employers in industry, commerce and the public sector to influence the future of ICT training and, in particular, address skill shortages within the ICT and creative industries. Students can select from a large portfolio of industry focused programmes in computing, creative digital technologies as well as highly valued vendor-specific qualifications to complement academic development.

Our training suites are equipped with £1.36 m of the most up to date equipment and software available. We are a Cisco Supercollege (and Regional Academy) and also a Microsoft Regional Academy.

The PDMS has proved to be particularly effective in organisations undergoing significant cultural change, experiencing rapid growth, with a young or relatively inexperienced management team, or where individuals are promoted from technical into management roles.

As business continues to be increasingly competitive, we all need to develop highly trained, effective managers. Finding time for this can be difficult. Flexible learning allows maximum management development with minimum disruption to your organisation.

The PDMS programme prepares managers to perform confidently and effectively as a member of a management team.

The programme is internationally recognised and has been designed to meet national standards for management in the UK by our flexible learning partners, MOL (one of the UK's leading flexible learning providers).
