Business Activities:
Established in 2004, this is a ground breaking and successful training organisation offering high quality training for staff in the Health and Social Care sector. Detailed training courses and NVQ delivery have been successfully developed to address the gap in provision of NVQ and other training for Foster Carers, Residential Child Care Workers and staff employed under the Direct Payment Schemes.

From April 2008 all new foster carers are expected to reach the Training, Support and Development (Induction) Standards within twelve months of their approval to foster children and young people and all existing foster carers are expected to achieve these standards by April 2011. The vendors have developed delivery materials and accreditation for the achievement of these standards. The vendors recognise that in addition to their existing provision this is an area of huge potential growth.
The vendors have developed a team of highly skilled and experienced professionals with many years experience in the provision of health and social care. The company provides training, mentoring, assessment, verification and administrative support necessary to ensure that learners are given every opportunity to complete their qualification and to support any queries the employer may have during the period of the training (completion rate of 97%).

Due to the demands of the time of the learners, the training is delivered at venues and times convenient to learners, employers and foster care agencies. Highly effective links have been built with local authorities, fostering agencies and other social care employers ensuring continuity and growth of business. Additional income is generated through various training solution programs designed and implemented on a commercially basis ? this too has the potential to grow further.

The practices, the approach and the ?know how? honed by the business would fit well with another training provider looking to enhance their training portfolio and maximise the huge growth potential. Post sale the vendors are prepared to continue working in the business for a period of time subject to negotiation.
