It's not too late to apply for a course to start this September!
I enjoy being part of the team and thinking of new ways to support local businesses in realising their potential. Watching learners transition from a one-day course to gaining qualifications motivates me to continue teaching at LMC.
Gill Newsome is a certified CMI Chartered Manager, who worked as Business Development Manager at LMC in the early 2000’s. Gill later took up the opportunity to deliver Management and Excel training in her own business, Fusion Training, for over 15 years before returning to LMC to become a tutor for the Leading Lancashire project.
As part of her role within Leading Lancashire, Gill reaches out to SMEs (fewer than 250 employees) across the county to deliver management skills in the workplace. The courses include nationally recognised qualifications such as the CMI Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management, as well as Managing Change and Instilling Resilience, which is useful to employees in any professional setting.
When asked what her favourite part of the role is, Gill responded:

Gill’s advice to anybody thinking about enrolling onto a Leading Lancashire is:
You’re not only training for this job, but you’re training for your next job!
Alongside Leadership & Management, you can also enrol onto Digital Skills courses to support you with cultivating an effective social media and digital marketing presence. If you own or work in a Small to Medium Enterprise based in Lancashire, browse our fully funded Leading Lancashire programme and enrol today.
Industry specific apprenticeships are a great way to learn new skills and knowledge, achieve a recognised qualification and earn a wage. Customer service is the corner stone of every successful business, and courses at LMC will help you identify, improve and introduce these skills successfully.
Behind every great business is a fantastic accountant! AAT qualifications are highly valued and they can really push you to achieve great things in your career. The whole team at LMC are dedicated and excited about giving you the best possible start in your new journey!
The Business Administration Apprenticeship at LMC gives you a plethora of transferable skills which can lead you to your chosen career pathway. It teaches you the foundations of customer service, information and communication technology (ICT), administration, business, and soft skills such as effective communication, teamwork and organisational skills. It is the perfect starting point to your career!
Learning the art of Business and Marketing is the single most useful thing you’ll ever do in your life. Business and Marketing are a huge part of every single industry in the world. Do it!
It’s really difficult to state just one thing I love about working at Lancaster & Morecambe College because there are so many! I really wanted to work here because the college has a fantastic reputation. I love introducing new ways of working and keeping up with relevant trends to improve the course, and I really enjoy the supportive environment that we create for our students. We also work closely with our Pastoral Mentors and Apprenticeship Progress Coaches to support our students academically as well as look after their wellbeing too.
