Coaching is a way of treating people, a way of thinking and a way of being, which is seen as vital to supporting individuals and organisations in increasingly volatile and ever-changing environments.
We’re listed on the register of apprenticeship training providers (RoATP), which means we know a thing or two about helping you get the most out of an apprenticeship. We’ll work closely with you to identify the necessary skills development, as well as refine the content to meet the needs of your business. With our blended programmes facilitated by specialist coaches, trainers and tutors, learners can sharpen their performance and accelerate their careers.
Our programmes use a blended learning model that’s powered by our apprenticeship delivery platform, Aptem. You can expect:
Interactive workshops that are held both face-to-face and virtually.
Online coaching sessions that provide support on an individual level.
Enhanced eLearning content via engaging modules and skills development activities.
Our learning is tailored to the needs of your business, your people, and their locations. That’s why we offer it virtually, in person, or as a mixture of the two – whatever suits you. In terms of online education, our ePortfolio system (Aptem) provides every learner with a comprehensive programme where they can develop their knowledge, capabilities and behaviours. This will help them to become a confident senior manager, and thrive in their end-point assessment.
