Army accreditation

Did you know that you can gain an internationally recognised qualification while completing your Army courses?

At ILM, we can help you to directly translate the leadership skills and knowledge you have gained through your military training into a qualification that civilian employers understand and value.

Depending on the course you are enrolled in, ILM accreditation can be funded via the Army Skills Offer or self-financed. The Army Skills Offer extends to both Regular and Reserve personnel and can be used to pay for ILM qualifications at every level provided that you are still employed by the Army.

Find your Army course and see what the ILM equivalent for that would be. Attached, you can find the form you need to fill in in order to apply.
