COVID Secure Training Courses

We are beginning to deliver in-house face to face training from the 17th of May 2021 and our schedule of open training courses will be phased in from the same date.

We recognise that we are still living in unsettling times and that COVID-19 is going to be with us for some time to come. As businesses begin to reopen their doors, the demand for face to face training is starting to return.

For the foreseeable future we will operate on a virtual first basis. This means that virtual training will always be our first recommendation.

We've been delivering online virtual training courses for a number of years via our Skills Garage website. Since the start of the pandemic, online has been the only way that people could attend training courses. We recognise for many that this will still be the case, so online training will still be at the forefront of what we offer. They will now be a permanent part of our proposition, allowing us and our clients more flexible options.

The demand for face to face training is increasing and during the initial lockdown of 2020 we worked hard on what we need to do to make sure that our return to face to face training is carefully managed. We want to ensure that our clients and delegates feel safe, but also comfortable when attending face to face training with us. This was put into action during the few months between lockdowns with great success.

Until all COVID restrictions are lifted, we'll still be following our COVID Secure Training Approach,

COVID Secure Training - Our Approach

Here are some of things that we will be doing to deliver COVID Secure Training Courses:

• Enhanced risk assessments for each venue we use to ensure that they are, and continue to be COVID Secure
• Trainer and delegate health declarations before each event
• A new booking system that has been written from the ground up to allow better, up-to-date information about venues
• Carefully planned room layouts to ensure social distancing
• Doubling-down on cleaning. We'll do it too, even if the venue has done this already
• Enhanced client liaison to plan your in-house training course safely
• Trainers kit that will include everything they need to provide a safe learning environment
• Training our trainers with courses from the World Health Organisation and internal training on our new practices
• Changes to catering and how food is handled and supplied
• More flexibility in our terms and conditions to allow for last minute changes
