QA Courses

With a wealth of industry experience in learning and development, we aim to provide flexible, robust and cost-effective solutions for businesses requiring organisational and personal development.

Approved by City & Guilds, Edexcel, BTEC and the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health and a registered provider with East Midlands Business (EMB) and Business Link, we take enormous pride in the quality and integrity of our values and services.

Our company objectives are:

• To provide excellent service in order to achieve a high level of client satisfaction
• To accomplish high levels of productivity through sound planning, organisation & teamwork
• To gain market recognition for being a highly professional, ethical and quality-assured business
• To recognise, respect & develop the skills and capabilities of our employees
• To re-invest in the business to ensure quality and continuous growth

In recognition of our efforts to implement these objectives we anticipate company approval to ISO 9001 (the internationally recognised standard for an organisation’s internal quality management) in early 2010.
