The AEA Training for Business initiative has been developing over the last 10 months with training needs analysis of members, careful selection of industry specific training providers, preparation of training facilities and pilot sessions.

Based on all of this the full programme of courses designed specifically for the land based industry has been prepared and published.

This programme consists of 23 different soft skills subjects scheduled for delivery at the Peterborough Training Centre from September 2014 through to March 2015 with ample spaces in the programme to schedule additional sessions if required.

The programme will be sent to all contacts within the land based industries be they AEA members or not and training is open to all with no restrictions.

Feedback and testimonial from the pilot sessions has been extremely good with course assessment scores provided by the delegates in the high 90s with several at 100% satisfaction, some testimonial comments are:

“I really enjoyed the course and I was really put at ease straight away. Mark related every situation into our business”.

“Excellent, will recommend to other colleagues”
Lee Mayhew, Lemken Ltd, Customer Service Skills

“Excellent course – gets you thinking positively and realise your own areas to be improved”
Michael Nicholls, Opico Ltd, Health & Safety Fundamentals

Summing up the new initiative and the publication of the full 2104/15 programme AEA CEO Roger Lane Nott said “This is a bespoke service for industry, requested by members, where costs and value for money and industry relevance are paramount. We have responded to member needs and will only be covering soft skills sensibly priced. Please support it.”
