Develop your leaders to boost your business

At Training 2000, we would love to tell you all about our Management Apprenticeship Masterclasses and how great they are for up-skilling your existing staff!

Most employees are promoted to a managing position because they are good at their job, but very few have the knowledge and skills to manage effectively.

Our unique delivery model offers one teaching session per month instead of one day per week, which is less disruptive to you and your business, but at the same time allows your employees to gain the skills needed to be a successful team leader or manager.

A Level 3 team leader said: “Darrin is an amazing tutor who really makes you feel that your input matters. I have only been on the programme for three months but from the amount I have learnt so far, I know this is going to do wonders for myself on a personal level as well as my future career.

“I am finding this apprenticeship both challenging and enjoyable and there is a level of respect given to me that I haven’t experienced in the education system before.”

A Level 5 manager said: “The support I’ve received on this programme has been fantastic. The programme has not only benefitted me but our whole business.”
