Award Winning Training

Ability Professional Training (Ability) received a prestigious National Training Award during a ceremony 6 October for the innovative and quality training of 70 managers from a local authority that resulted in thousands of pounds in efficiency savings and increased staff morale.

Ability, in partnership with the authority received the accolade of excellence in Partnership and Collaborative training at the prestigious National Training Awards in recognition for innovation and quality. This award was gained while working in partnership with the authority in developing its senior, middle and junior management team and gives further credibility to recent Chartered Management Institute (CMI) research findings that leaders are made rather than born.

The authority nominated APT for designing and delivering training programmes that resulted in tangible benefits and savings across all sectors of the authority's service which was independently audited to verify results.

This is an excellent example of how training can help organisations deliver business innovation and improvement if the focus is on theory and its practical application within a real business environment. We are constantly looking for ways of working with our business partners in which our training courses can produce real benefits and help deliver business improvements.

Ability specialises in the design and delivery of a selected range of leadership & management, health & social care, teacher training and soft skills programmes accredited by the UK's leading awarding bodies.

Each year several hundred candidates attend programmes at Ability's venues in London and Kent and at employer's premises across the south east of England.

Training is delivered in a professional adult study environment. Programmes are flexible and can be set up at any time customised to the needs of an organisation.
