High-Impact Leadership Programme
Develop strategic and behavioural skills to lead effectively, exercise positive influence and drive significant results.
Why take this programme
Leadership today goes far beyond delivering results: you must inspire, align teams around a clear purpose and act with strategic awareness in highly complex environments. Leaders who fail to evolve in this way risk stagnation, reduced team engagement and limited impact. Those who develop genuine presence, clarity and conscious influence become agents of transformation and sustainable growth.
Develop leaders with systems thinking, prepared to influence decisions, mobilise people and act with intentionality when facing strategic challenges. The programme strengthens both behavioural competences and the ability to generate impressive results in pressured, continually changing environments.

Everything about the certification
How are the 36 certified hours distributed in each programme?
Each programme features 36 certified hours completed entirely within the 3-week cohort period: 12 hours of live online theoretical content (8 modules); 12 hours of structured practical activities applied to real workplace challenges, with submission and instructor feedback; and 12 hours of leadership assessments on the Upskill platform, with self-evaluation, diagnostic analysis and an individual development plan (IDP).
How does assessment work and what are the approval criteria?
The programme combines continuous evaluation per module (mandatory practical exercises for each of the 8 modules) and a comprehensive final assessment covering conceptual understanding and practical application. To pass and receive certification, participants must achieve a minimum of 75% on the final assessment and at least 75% attendance in live sessions.
What documentation is issued upon programme completion?
Upon successful completion, participants receive: (1) A digital certificate of completion with 36 certified hours, completion period and detailed competencies (LinkedIn-compatible); (2) A formal completion report recording grades, attendance and approval; and (3) An educational service invoice in the participant's name with a single tuition value per programme.
How do the post-certification supervised application sessions work?
Included in the programme investment, participants receive 4 individual 60-minute sessions dedicated to transferring certified competencies into their workplace reality. These sessions are scheduled according to the participant's availability across the 6 months following completion and do not form part of the 36-hour certified workload.
What is the tuition investment and how does reimbursement work?
Tuition is US$ 5,000 per programme (or US$ 10,000 for the two sequential programmes, providing 72 certified hours and 16 modules). A single tuition invoice is issued for corporate reimbursement. Reimbursement depends on your organisation's policy and is generally treated as taxable income under local regulations.
