Leadership Course
Students are expected to attend and ideally complete a Chartered Management Institute course or equivalent during the year; different regions undertake different courses due to differences in funding. Most regions undertake an 'Introduction to Management' certificate and a 'Certificate in Management', the latter being accredited to NVQ level 3 standard. Teaching comes in the form of residential and one-day-a-month workshops, usually taught by local colleges, totalling around 14 days of tuition. Other regions undertake a smaller Institute of Leadership & Management Level 3 Certificate in Leadership. This involves around 60 hours of tuition spread over five one-day-a-month workshops. The course is organised by the Year in Industry and is paid for by the companies employing YinI students. Enrollment on this course gives YinI students membership to the NUS.

Famous quotes containing the word leadership:
“A woman who occupies the same realm of thought with man, who can explore with him the depths of science, comprehend the steps of progress through the long past and prophesy those of the momentous future, must ever be surprised and aggravated with his assumptions of leadership and superiority, a superiority she never concedes, an authority she utterly repudiates.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“This I do know and can say to you: Our country is in more danger now than at any time since the Declaration of Independence. We don’t dare follow the Lindberghs, Wheelers and Nyes, casting suspicion, sowing discord around the leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We don’t want revolution among ourselves.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
