Great British Brand excited that doors open for British Education in Malaysia

Pitman Training supports David Cameron in 'The Great Year of Education'

As discussions continue between the Northern Powerhouse and Malaysian government, the 178 year old British training provider, Pitman Training Group has announced its ongoing support and involvement with 'The Great Year of Education' - Cameron’s new educational campaign, in which Malaysia and the UK have renewed their commitment to enhance key areas of trade, education and investment.

Following his discussions with Sajid Javid (UK Secretary of State) and being asked for input at a round table discussion with Malaysian Government education representatives in Kuala Lumpar, Andrew Walters, Director at Pitman Training Group, has confirmed that he will be now working with UK Trade & Investment in Malaysia  to register courses on the Malaysian framework. Additionally, Andrew confirms that Pitman is looking to work with local government to assist with the Malaysian plan to get Women (particularly Mums) back into work through a scheme called HEARTS (Housewives Enhancement and Reactive Talent Scheme)

Pitman Training is already a strong educational brand across Malaysia, having been commonly taught in schools there up to the 1980’s. The latest series of talks means that Pitman Training will once again be a brand that’s integral to the skills development across the country.
