What do you mean by ' management experience'?
If someone does not have management experience in a workplace, can't they apply?
Thank you.
Answer:
Greetings,
Management experience means an individual is currently working in any supervisory role/has worked in a supervisory role in the past, such as administrative officers, senior managers, and personal assistants.
You can apply for the course without management experience if you have a Level 3 (or equivalent) qualification, but it does require a work replacement to sign off certain assessment criteria.

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.
