Our training courses provide high quality, affordable training, delivered to meet the needs of our customers. We know and understand that early years providers work long hours and have designed our courses with this in mind. Our courses are often therefore delivered in the evenings and at weekends as well as during the daytime. Our First Aid courses are awarded by the First Aid Industry Body (FAIB). Our safeguarding courses are endorsed and quality assured by a number of Greater Manchester Local Authority, Local Safeguarding Children Boards.

We have developed a new focus for weekend training in this calendar particularly in response to childminders who tell us that they find it difficult to travel in the evenings from a distance. Our new #Saturday #CPD courses will hopefully help practitioners to access training in a time and cost effective way. Check out where they are referenced in the calendar.

We frequently deliver ‘in house’ for those settings who have groups of staff wanting to train together. Our in-house courses cost £350 for up to 15 staff and then £15 per person per head for up to 25 at any one time based on a 2.5 – 3 hour course. Prices exclude First Aid and some of our longer courses. Please ask for details for in house prices for these courses.
