For The Benefit Of Everyone!
All Of Our Training Is Also Available To You.
Our qualified trainers have over 20 years experience delivering high quality
training. As a result of this we have a division within A1 specifically
to train staff to ensure that they not only meet, but exceed the National
Minimum Standards. Now we are offering you the opportunity to benefit
from our skills and experience.
Any of our training sessions are open for your staff to attend. Or we can
arrange a member of our training team to come to your premises and deliver
it in your own surroundings, which is an excellent option if you have
a lot of staff who need training. Tailor-made training days can be arranged
with a mixture of any of our training sessions.
All courses include all training materials, staff information packs and
certificates.
All courses are accepted towards NVQ levels.
We also do complete induction sessions where new staff can complete all
the basic requirements at one of our group sessions, minimising any
disruption and inconvenience to you and your residence. This can also
incorporate the CRB check which we can do on your behalf. Insert link
