Accredited Leadership Qualification Courses
Great leaders will ensure your employees are performing at their personal best, inspire teams to do their best work, and navigate your business through any challenge.
As an HR Manager you’re responsible for creating an effective leadership development strategy that creates a pipeline of future leaders for your business.
But how do you create successful, effective training interventions?
You’ve sent your leaders on training programmes, or designed and delivered a custom programme in-house for your leaders.
They come back, and you don’t see much of a difference.
What went wrong?
Poor alignment between training outcomes and business goals
Fear of failure
Difficulty applying new skills learnt in training enviornment, to everyday working enviornment
Lack of measurable return on investment
Sound familiar?
This may be why you don’t see the ‘great leaders’ you expected to after these interventions.
And what’s worse, is that you’ve invested in a process that has provided you with little return on investment.
You need a training solution that works.
Brain eBox believes that your business’ competitive advantage is the quality of its leaders.

On the surface, it may seem like a standard programme, but here’s what makes our approach more effective:
We customise the course content to meet your business outcomes.
We meet with you before we commence to listen and understand what business outcome you hope to achieve. We then provide you with a recommendation of which course, or combination of courses will help you achieve the business outcome you desire.
We support your leaders to apply their learning in their work environment.
We ask you to share with us the processes or templates you want your leaders to perform better in, and we incorporate this into the course content so your leaders are able to apply the learning again in their ‘real world’.
We coach your leaders to overcome their performance barriers
Built into our process is a half day of assessment coaching where we support your leaders to complete their assessments, and we provide a supportive space to discuss challenges and answer questions.
We help you define the measures of success
Before we begin, once we understand what you want to achieve, we quantify this into measures of success. We evaluate each leader against this measure with you prior to the course, and then plan how and when we will measure this again post the course to measure your return.
Using this approach, we are able to help your business develop its competitive advantage by increasing the quality of its leaders.

FAQ's
Brain eBox has a team comprising of a facilitator, assessor and moderator; who are all registered with the SETA for their role. Their details and profiles will be shared with you when we meet to discuss your programme.
Immediately, upon course completion, we provide the employee with a certificate of completion which confirms that they have finished the course.
At this time, we submit their results to the Services SETA. Services SETA then conducts an external moderation at our offices to check the Portfolios of each learner.
Post this visit, the SETA will make a recommendation for certification of the learners.
We then wait to receive the employee’s statement of results from the SETA, or qualification in the case of the qualification being completed. We then provide this to your company, who will sign receipt of these.
In our experience, the certification process takes 6 – 12 months post the course completion.
Each programme type, individual, skills programme or qualification has its own set time allocation. This allocation is split between classroom time, on-the-job time and self-study time.
Based on your programme interest, we will share with you the specific time needed for each learner to invest.
During class time, employees complete a formative assessment which tests their knowledge during the programme. After the class time, employees have a practical assignment called a summative assessment which they need to complete and apply in the workplace.
The outcome of each assessment can either be: Competent (the employee has met the requirements), Not Yet Competent (the employee has not met the requirements) or Insufficient evidence (the employee has submitted insufficient evidence for us to make a judgement).
Yes, you can replace a registered employee with a different employee up to 30 days after the course commencement date. After this day, no replacements are permitted.
