Military Rank Equivalencies.
The Institute of Leadership recognises military ranks and has mapped them to membership grades, according to levels of achievement, experience and qualifications.
We have also mapped military training courses to City & Guilds / ILM qualifications. This means that, if you don’t have formal management-related qualifications, you can still join The Institute, at a membership grade that recognises your achievements and/or military training.
