Further loosening of COVID restrictions in recent months means that life - and business - is slowly returning to ‘normal’. As employees venture back into offices and businesses that were closed reopen, skills gaps that have appeared within the workforce may start to become apparent.
Now’s a great time to address these gaps, which may have come about due to furloughing or redundancies or simply because businesses have had to make changes to the way they operate in order to thrive, or indeed, survive. Acknowledging these skills gaps and identifying the training that could close them is the first step to making a positive change. We can help with this process if you need support in this area, so please do get in touch.

We’re going digital!
Our new 2021/22 Course Directory is going digital this autumn - keep your eye on our social channels for updates! Once it’s ready, you’ll be able to download it directly from our website and view or print the courses or sections you’re interested in. Printed directories quickly date - as soon as a price or course changes, it’s no longer accurate. The beauty of the digital version is that we can continually update it to ensure the information we’re presenting you with is always current.
Bespoke training
We offer a bespoke training service that allows us to design a training programme that is personalised to your requirements and those undertaking the training. Programmes will focus on your subject of choice and can range from one-day courses to longer term training, incorporating industry-recognised qualifications or accreditations if that’s what you’re after.
