If you are (or want to be!) a professional Administrator in business, government, service industries, education, a charity or any sector of industry, you should consider the specially designed IAM Certificate in Administrative Management.

This qualification is designed to help you:

• Get a qualification to help you find a job
• Do your existing job better
• Gain additional knowledge and understanding about your current role
• Apply your new skills at work
• Maximise your personal development and equip you for promotion
• Progress to roles supervising and training others


By choosing to follow this programme (recognised as a Level 3 qualification within the UK Government's National Qualifications Framework), you are showing your potential to look at your own performance, find the best way to work with your colleagues and take responsibility for improving performance in the workplace around you.

This qualification is aimed at people with some experience of working in administration who want to develop their professional skills. So if you have twelve months work experience or more, you can go straight on to this qualification. This work-related qualification provides the link between being a basic practitioner, and the next skills level: after this, you might want to become a supervisor, and then - if you decide to follow the IAM's Diploma and Advanced Diploma - you can go on to become an Incorporated Administrative Manager.

The aim of the Certificate is to provide an in depth introduction to the field of Administrative Management and serve as a precursor to moving on the IAM Diploma and beyond.
