… with a focus on quality and added value …
We attribute our growth and success since our foundation in 1997 to our commitment to quality. Clients come to us, and consistently stay with us, because of our robust quality management systems. Every client receives dedicated personal account management and our advisors use a collaborative approach to determine the best solution for each organisation and the people within it.
Our training courses are designed and rigorously reviewed by our Curriculum Team for total quality assurance. This ensures we stay at the forefront of changes to legislation and standards as well as maintaining expert sector knowledge.
Training quality is further underlined through our approved centre status with prestigious, national awarding bodies including Highfield Awarding Body for Compliance (HABC) and the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). We are also endorsed by Skills for Care.
… whilst delivering for our community.
We take our duties to our people, our local community and our environment very seriously. That’s why we are an accredited Living Wage Employer.
We have implemented a number of measures to reduce our impact on the environment and significantly offset our carbon footprint, ensuring sustainable and responsible service delivery.
