Start growing your business by investing in your employees
Introduction
In this block, your employees will learn about the structure of the cMBE and the methods it uses. They’ll also get to work with the first personal development module: the time management scan. The assignments for this section are aimed at building a strong group, so that they can help each other to make the most of the course as a team.
Contents:
- cMBE introduction
- Scan: Time management
- Assignments
Management & leadership
In this block, the basics of management are covered to ensure that everyone starts with the same fundamental knowledge. The e-learning ‘Leadership and personality’ provides a good insight into the characteristics and skills of effective leaders.
Contents:
- Management basics
- Leadership and personality
- Scan: Leadership
- Assignments
Strategy
Strategy is an important topic for top managers. It determines the direction and focus of the company; where should we be going as an organisation? This module gives your employees an introduction to this topic, but also goes further into describing several useful theories and models that can be used to establish a strong strategy for your organisation.
Contents:
- An introduction to business strategy
- Scan: Communication style
- Assignments
Innovation
This innovation module has two perspectives, namely ‘innovation is everywhere’ and ‘technical innovation’. The term innovation automatically leads us to think about product innovation, but in fact, innovation is everywhere, and influences all aspects of your organisation. Innovation is also the basis of an agile organisation, which takes us to the technical side of things.
Contents:
- Innovation in business
- Assignments
Organisation
Organisations are no longer what they used to be. The dynamic nature of today’s organisations demands the ability to continuously adapt. In this section, several famous experts will show your employees how to deal with specific problems and make the best use of IT.
Contents:
- Organisational structure
- Effective management and IT
- Scan: Managerial effectiveness
- Assignments
Human Resource Management
Every executive must have a basic knowledge of HRM. What are the main issues in a large organisation? How do the typical characteristics of new generations bring about changes in this field? This block also includes the topic of cultural diversity and doing business.
Contents:
- HRM for managers
- Cultural diversity and doing business
- Scan: Conflict management
- Assignments
Sales & marketing
A carefully crafted combination of sales and marketing is vital for success. This is a classic topic, but one that can change enormously from year to year, particularly as a result of new technological developments.
Contents:
- Sales for managers
- Marketing for managers
- Assignments
Finance
The final block covers another essential topic: finance. Every top manager should have a solid basic knowledge when it comes to finance. This section includes a series of e-learnings that take your employees through the fundamental concepts one by one.
Contents:
- Finance for managers 1
- Finance for managers 2
- Finance for managers 3

Modern accreditation with Open Badges
Our cMBE training programme uses a modern form of accreditation: Open Badges. An Open Badge provides visual, digital and reliable evidence that your employee has acquired a particular skill, competence or level. These open badges are universally recognised, fully transferable and can be added to a LinkedIn profile. Leading organisations such as IBM and Google are already using this modern form of accreditation.
To avoid misunderstandings: an accreditation with Open Badges cannot be compared to an accreditation linked to an official Master title. With our cMBE programme, we offer a management training with its own identity.
So, is this programme suited for your organisation?
- Your organisation is ready to focus on talent development
- You are tired of saying no to employees who want work on their professional development
- You want to enable all your experienced managers and executives to develop their skills
- You want to acquire knowledge that can be used to work towards organisational goals on a daily basis

A “moderator” is appointed for each group that starts with the cMBE programme. This person guides the group through the entire program. As an organisation, you can choose to let this be someone from your own organisation, or you can get support from SkillsTown.
Depending on that choice, an extra time investment by the organisation will be necessary.
SkillsTown has various options for integrating the cMBE programme into another platform. If this is desirable, we will work together to see how we can best arrange this. Our team of experts will always provide a suitable solution.
