Employer-led Programmes

We offer training courses in partnership with employers to support recruitment and fill skills gaps in the workplace or industry.

Bespoke Employer Led Programmes (BELPs)

A BELP boosts knowledge and covers skills training to achieve a qualification. In addition,, learners will gain industry insights from guest speakers and often receive a guaranteed job interview on completion of the programme. We develop BELPS in partnership with employers.

We’ve created BELPs for a huge variety of industries from logistics and warehousing to care and hospitality. Contact our Business Development Team to discuss in more detail.
