Our tailored training programmes are founded upon a philosophy of partnership with corporate clients. We work to understand your business and your people, and to form a long-term relationship with you.

Our client-centred approach is realised through a clear and negotiated agreement on all aspects of the development and provision of our training programmes. Our extensive services are tailored to individual client’s needs and are affirmed annually by strong repeat business sustained over many years.

An experienced Programme Manager works closely with you in the development of the programme and throughout its delivery to ensure that the programme meets your objectives and that your goals are realised. A flexible and adaptable approach allows clients to select a format from short course or open programme through to a tailored qualification programme, which can be delivered onsite or at your organisation.

Tailored services include

• A wide range of customisable general management and talent management programmes
• Training needs analysis, programme design services, training evaluation
• In-company training
• Short courses
• Recognised University awards at Certificate and Diploma level

We have delivered successful continuous professional development programmes both across the UK and internationally for over 30 years, partnering with clients from a wide range of business sectors.

A student placement or internship is an excellent way of attracting talent to your organisation. It is a cost-effective way to have a skilled student working in your organisation. Whether it be an undergraduate with fresh ideas and perspectives or an MBA student with international work experience to tackle a one–off project, our students welcome the opportunity to contribute to your organisation and apply their learning.

MBA students from the School of Business and Economics can provide a low-cost consultancy to your organisation and help you develop projects in a number of areas, for example, business analytics, project management and innovation, social media, staff development and new product development.
