CREC is the only organisation in the West Midlands that delivers the National Professional Qualification in Integrated Centre Leadership (NPQICL). You can find out more about this programme by visiting the National College website. This programme differs from other taught programmes in that it does not solely focus on academic learning about leadership but is grounded in the day-to-day practice of children’s centre leaders.
‘The NPQICL programme has had such a monumental impact on my leadership that I have found myself in many different environments talking about the positive impact the programme has had. A very big thank you for the learning experience’ (Comment from participant 2010).

A leader, deputy or deputy equivalent of a DfE designated children’s centre
A member of a senior management team with a substantial role in leading centre services
A leader of private provision who can demonstrate that they are leading centre services in a formal partnership with designated public provision.
