Welcome to our care training organisation, where personal & continuous professional development go hand in hand.

Training Delivery
Your workforce will benefit from training sessions which are tailor-made for your type of care provision and delivered at a pace suitable to the entire group of attendees. Sessions comprise face to face delivery using powerpoint presentation, incorporating group activities, tutor-guided exercises, selective inclusion of DVD viewing and interactive discussions. On some courses like Manual Handling & Emergency First Aid, attendees are required to complete both theoretical and practical components of the sessions and a written question paper. All practical equipment will be brought along by the trainer, except for wheelchairs, hoists and fire fighting equipment, which may have to be provided by the care provision requesting such training courses.
All sessions are delivered in line with National and CQC Guidelines and subject matter relate to evidence-based practice. We follow principles of person-centredness and personalisation and refer to best practice initiatives, to drive training sessions forward.
Arrangement for training session is flexible and we tend to keep to weekdays, 9am till 5pm. At the discretion of the trainer, Saturdays can sometimes be arranged for training delivery. Evening sessions can also be booked between 5pm and 9pm. There is an advance booking system in place- [Click on 'Contact Us' at the top of this page to access the booking form].

Our motto:
' What we learn to do we learn by doing...' [Aristotle 400 BC]. We believe that the care profession demands that the workers have to continually learn on the job and use reflection to improve their future practice. We therefore emphasise the Code of Practice and the notion of 'reflective inquiry' to all our trainees.
We invite you to try our organisation for the success of your care provision and see your workforce gain the right knowledge and skills so that they gain in confidence and become more occupationally competent. Remember, we provide only one kind of training; THE BEST! You will never want to leave us again!
