SQA has developed 2 suites of Professional Development Awards in Management and Leadership. These are short focused awards made up of two Units. The PDAs range from SCQF level 6 (Higher) to SCQF level 11 (Masters) and are jointly certificated with the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).
One suite is based on HN Units (Capability Suite). These are designed to develop knowledge, skills and understanding of the principles of management. They are not just relevant to employees already in management positions, but also those aspiring to a managerial role.
The other suite of PDAs is made up of SVQ Units (Competency Suite). These develop knowledge and understanding, but also allow candidates to demonstrate occupational competence in a range of management activities through proof of actual performance in the workplace.
