“Learners who study team leading and customer service develop significant new knowledge. For example, in team leading, learners develop an understanding of working in teams and how to manage conflict. As a result, these learners are better prepared for their next steps.”
“Teachers and trainers provide focused and effective support for learners. Leaders and teachers understand thoroughly many of learners’ barriers to learning. Where learners fall behind, teachers provide rapid extra support and tuition.”
“The majority of learners who follow courses that have interviews with employers (such as customer service and team leading) move into employment.”
