Frequently asked questions
What training does a new manager need?
New managers most need help moving from doing the work to managing the people who do it: setting expectations, delegating, motivating a team, managing in a structured way and having the first difficult conversation. Keys Training’s one-day course for emerging managers covers all of these with practical exercises built on real workplace scenarios.
Who is the course for?
Newly promoted or aspiring supervisors, team leaders and managers, particularly people with strong technical skills who now find themselves managing a team for the first time. No previous management experience or training is needed.
Can the course be delivered at our premises or remotely?
Yes. It runs in-house at your premises anywhere in the UK, live online via Microsoft Teams, as a public classroom course at Keys Training venues, or as a customised day with professional actors.
How much does management training for new managers cost?
A public classroom place is £295 plus VAT per person. In-house or live online group courses are £495 plus VAT for a half day or £795 plus VAT for a full day, each for up to 6 attendees with £45 plus VAT per additional attendee. The actor-led option is quoted individually.
How is this different from the Management and Leadership Skills course?
This course is built for people who have just stepped into management or are about to, and starts from first principles. The Management and Leadership Skills course suits supervisors and managers who already have some experience and want to strengthen their people-management skills.
What will new managers be able to do after the course?
Lead in a structured way, balance the task and people sides of the job, motivate their people, delegate with confidence and communicate clearly with their team. Free telephone and email support after the course helps them apply it.
Training a larger group?
Our half-day and full-day in-house prices are based on groups of up to 6 people, and the actor-led option can be run for any group size. If you have a larger team, or several teams to train, please speak with one of our team to discuss this further. We will help you work out the best way to run it and put together a tailored quote.
