Team management and personnel management training courses are available at various levels (basic and advanced courses) and also for specific sectors and professional groups (business, industry, medicine, social work).

This means that you can start with a basic course, gain your first practical team leadership experience at the same time or afterwards and deepen your leadership skills later in advanced courses.
