Describes the main features of a unique management development programme devised by Shepherd Construction Ltd and Leeds Metropolitan University, which features work‐based learning, mentoring and accreditation of prior learning and has resulted in the first group of Shepherd managers recently receiving their postgraduate awards. Demonstrates that industry and higher education can get together and do new and exciting things.
