Training Strategies, the Liverpool-based skills provider, is expanding its operations as demand for high-quality training across the Liverpool City Region soars.
The team behind the firm have acquired a brand-new site in Oriel Road, Bootle which will create up to 20 new jobs and over 30 apprenticeships.
The 6,000 sq ft office will accommodate its existing 120 staff currently based in Stopgate Lane, and enable the company to cater for additional learners who enrol onto its courses.
Training Strategies, which celebrates its 10th birthday this year, specialises in the delivery of apprenticeships and programmes for unemployed people. It is also a key player in helping local and national businesses grow by offering an array of bespoke courses that can be delivered in the workplace.
The training provider has become a leading player in the delivery of apprenticeships, winning coveted contracts with Government and the Skills Funding Agency. The firm says 80.2% of learners achieve their qualification – which is significantly higher than the national average.
Now, with a train station situated directly next to the site, the company – rated Good by Ofsted – believes it’s in a prime location to attract a new wave of applicants keen to complete its pre-employment programmes as well as enhance its on-site training offer.
Speaking about the new move, Training Strategies’ Apprenticeships Manager Barry Dunne said:
“We are really excited about the new unit and our expansion. Since our inception in 2008, we have had a successful period in North Liverpool but the time has come to move to pastures new. Now that we have more space, it means we have the capacity to take on additional staff to support the growing numbers of young people we are putting on apprenticeship programmes.
Demand for our on-site employment courses is also growing rapidly so hopefully we can be responsible for upskilling workforces across Merseyside. Our ambition is for individuals to secure high-skill, high-wage jobs which will help boost the Liverpool City Region economy.
It has been a promising start and we are confident that 2018 will be a big year for us.”
Training Strategies works with over 400 employers across the North West as well as national brands such as Heinz, HMRC and Royal Mail.
