Overview

Delegation of Authority Certificate Course

Often, there are many moving parts to running a business and a large part of this involves delegating tasks to various individuals. Delegation of tasks is also an important element for anyone in a managerial position. Being in any type of leadership role requires a certain level of trust, as delegation of authority is an important aspect of managing a team or group of people. Entrusting employees with responsibilities creates a higher commitment to work. Delegation of authority is not just beneficial for a business or for a leader, but it also serves as a vital aspect of growth for many professionals. One can learn new skills and fine-tune old ones, while delivering and receiving respect. However, while the delegation of authority can have many benefits, there is often hesitation regarding the implementation of it.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
