The standard behind it
What this training is based on
This eLearning course covers the learning outcomes of the CITB Achieving Performance Through People standard. It is Acadame's own course, not the CITB standard itself, and it does not lead to a CITB certificate or qualify for CITB grant.
One thing to be clear about: you get results through people, not despite them. How you lead, communicate and give feedback shapes your team's safety, quality and productivity every day.
Practicalities
How the course works
Would you rather have a tutor?
Prefer a tutor-led, certificated route? Our CITB Leadership and Management courses cover these topics in the classroom, carry a CITB certificate and can qualify for CITB grant.
For employers
Buying for a team
Buying for more than a couple of people is easier on an account: one invoice, licences you allocate as staff join, and a report of who has done what and when it expires.
- One invoice instead of one card payment per person
- Allocate licences as people join
- Completion and expiry reporting for your records
- Bespoke versions written around your own procedures
