Hi, have sent you a PM as am very interested in obtaining more details.

Many Thanks.

[Liose]

Hi - Have responded to your PM. I will call you tomorrow to answer questions.

 

Can I reiterate again - this course is free if you work in a community or voluntary organisation (council/police/fire/schools/charities/CAB) etc - any non-for-profit organisations. It's a great opportunity to get a professionally recognised qualification to put on your CV! 12 weeks - 2 hours plus that assessment - which is tailored to abilities from G.C.S.E to degree level.

 

There are courses in Sheffield/Barnsley/Doncaster and Rotherham - any HR Managers/Training Managers out there - this would be a great way to bring Management training into your organisation without cutting into your budget whilst allowing your employees to increase skill levels to nationally accredited standards.

 

Here as always to answer any questions! Cheers.

Yes - courses could be delivered on site if we had enough learners that isn't a problem - would you like me to call you to discuss? If you want to pm me your e-mail I'll send you information and then we can go from there.
