GLOUCESTERSHIRE ENTERPRISE RETAIN THEIR INVESTORS IN PEOPLE QUALIFICATION

Gloucestershire Enterprise's latest Investors in People report opened with the following paragraph:

"This is truly a remarkable company and one of the best small organisations the assessor has had the privilege to be associated with. The brilliant culture that was evident 3 years ago has been retained despite the fact that business has changed during that time. To have achieved this through a blend of good communication and shrewd promotion is evidence indeed of the supportive and single team spirit evident here. Staff and trainers that were interviewed said that Gloucestershire Enterprise management was so totally different from their previous experiences."

NEW CENTRE OPENS IN THORNBURY

GEL's success in Gloucestershire has led us to expansion and we have now opened a new training centre in Thornbury, with the aim of providing South Gloucestershire companies with access to the same high quality, low cost, skills development training as their northern neighbours.

 

The centre is situated at Park House Business Centre in the High Street in Thornbury.  It is easily accessed from both Junction 14 and Junction 15  of the M5 as well as from the A38.  There is plenty of free parking nearby and the feedback from delegates so far has been most encouraging.

 

The address is Park House Business Centre, High Street, Thornbury, nr Bristol BS35 2AQ

 

GLOUCESTERSHIRE ENTERPRISE LEADS THE FIELD

 

From a position of third largest centre in the South West Region in 2004, Gloucestershire Enterprise Ltd has moved to the top of the league to become the number one performing centre for management development awards.  In the first six months of 2005, the Shurdington based training company more than doubled its total number of registrations achieved in 2004, making it by far the largest and most active centre in the region.  Furthermore, in the UK as a whole, Gloucestershire Enterprise Ltd is now noted as a centre of prime importance for management development awards. 

 

John Ashe, Regional Manager in the South West for the Institute of Leadership Management (ILM) said: “I would like to congratulate Gloucestershire Enterprise Ltd as the Top Centre for ILM registrations in the South West Region in 2005.  This is a magnificent effort and we would like to thank all the staff for their commitment to ILM during the year.”

Gloucestershire Enterprise Ltd has an innovatory approach to delivering ILM programmes, serving as an example of best practice and a benchmark for the quality of ILM programmes nationwide.  Their programmes are delivered in a variety of formats and at various venues around the County.


Kevin Holt, Managing Director of Gloucestershire Enterprise Ltd said “We are delighted to be the number one centre in the region and recognised in this way.  My staff and trainers have worked extremely hard to promote the benefits of ILM management development programmes and to make them accessible to many more businesses in the County, which has obviously paid off.  We are already extending the range of awards available and offering them in even more formats to make attendance and achievement easier.”
