Pertemps Training are committed to putting our learners first and ensuring that their participation in our programmes is a positive experience that supports their successful achievement. We are involved in a range of initiatives to support people into securing sustainable employment, whilst developing those in their current job role.We specialise in the delivery of nationally recognised qualifications and high quality learning programmes in the areas of management and handling people. We pride ourselves on a client-specific approach, treating each client as an individual and adapting our programmes to meet the particular objectives required. All of our programmes are delivered by a team of professional consultants, each possessing a wealth of commercial and business knowledge in their field of expertise and from which a trainer most suited to your individual needs will be selected. Furthermore, we have achieved ISMM accreditation, allowing us to offer both ISMM Accreditation Sales and Marketing and ILM Accreditation Team Leader and Management Programmes, fully recognised QCA awards. All programmes offered are entirely flexible and can appeal to a range of staff at different stages of their careers. A typical course can be aimed at field sales, inbound or outbound telesales, business-to-business sales or retail staff. Each programme will be designed to ensure that they are meaningful in the marketplace in which the client currently operates, and to link internal practices and resources to effective sales and marketing skills. The format can include group discussions and exercises, tutor input and project work between sessions and post-course. In addition to these Personal Development Programmes, a customised Management Development Programme is also available. This consists of core modules, tailored to reflect both the current business objectives of the client and use case studies based on 'real-life experiences'. Courses can take place either on the client's premises or at specially selected venues across the country. Open learning through the mediums of Intranet or e-mail and 'on- the-job' coaching is also available if more convenient for the clients needs. A significant and expanding area of work has been the provision of assessment centres, with considerable focus on sales recruitment. Working in partnership with organisations has ensured high levels of success in the recruitment and induction training of staff, leading to enhanced staff and performance. Whether it's an NVQ, Modern Apprenticeship or something more specific, Pertemps Training has the ability to provide life-long learning.

PPDG Smashes Skills’ Target

DESCRIPTION:

PPDG Smashes Skills’ Target

We are delighted to announce that a PPDG-run initiative in the Tees Valley which helps clients to gain skills and enter work has already smashed its targets halfway through the contract.

Skills 4 Jobs, run by PPDG on behalf of the Learning and Skills Council (LSC), provides support and training to help people find work. It is available to anyone who is unemployed, over the age of 19 and has less than five A-C GCSEs.

PPDG’s latest project has met its target by registering more than 567 unemployed Teesside people and finding work for approximately 121 – half way through the 10-month contract. The targets set for the project were to register 430, to help 161 people into work and to ensure at least 121 remain in employment for more than 13 weeks.

Paul Wharton, Deputy Centre Manager at PPDG’s Middlesbrough office, said: “The response to this contract has been really impressive; it demonstrates how much people want to get back into work in the Tees Valley. The key for us has been how we've worked with other agencies and promoted additional support available to improve the long-term employment prospects of those across the region.”

Beverley Dewar of the LSC with Paul Wharton of PPDG celebrate the success of Skills 4 Jobs.

The programme – which has been running since February this year – is tailored specifically to each individual client to access the appropriate skills and qualifications they need to succeed.

It works closely with the Train to Gain service, to help provide continued learning while in work and also provide support to help employers up-skill their workforce.

Chris Roberts, Regional Director, LSC North East, said: “This personalised service has worked well for participants in the Tees Valley. By utilising the Train to Gain service, which recently has a number of new and additional flexibilities offering significant enhancements to the service, it means more employers and their staff have access to the widest possible range of support to up-skill, gain qualifications and improve business performance.”
