About Company

Parkinson’s UK is the largest European charitable funder of Parkinson’s research. Based in the United Kingdom, Parkinson’s UK provides expert information, support and opportunities to everyone with Parkinson’s and their families. Since 1969, Parkinson’s UK has raised awareness, funded and influenced research, changed perceptions and worked to ensure people living with Parkinson‘s are treated fairly and have access to the support they need.

Needs Assessment

The charity has a unique staff, with 70% of Parkinson’s UK’s employees working across the country outside the Londonoffice. Most management training programs are classroom-based, and difficult for all staff to attend.

Ensure all members of staff at Parkinson’s UK have the skills needed to best achieve the charity’s mission.

Primary Tactic

Enroll in a cost effective management development training program that is engaging, exciting for managers and aspiring managers, and user-friendly for all participants.

Training Solution

Parkinson’s UK wanted to provide a management development opportunity for its staff that was a new, fresh and modern experience. The charity selected to participate in IME’s Nationally Accredited Management & Leadership course, and the Mini MBA in Peak Performance and Productivity. Both courses were conducted online with additional learning support from tutors via interactive webinar sessions and learner forums. In addition to the formal courses, Parkinson’s UK also received access to weekly, tutor-led professional skills webinar series. Interest in both programs was instantaneous across all levels of staff.

Results

Employees also agreed that the offering of IME’s training programs further solidified their pride in the organization and Parkinson’s UK’s commitment to the development of its employees. The learnings they obtained via the Management & Leadership course and Mini MBA have helped the Parkinson’s UK staff work more efficiently and collaboratively by utilizing new skills on how to approach tasks and do things better.

With these new positive ways of thinking employees are more self-aware, self-confident and proactive. IME’s training programs have given the Parkinson’s UK employees a fresh perspective and renewed sense of excitement for what they do. In a testimonial one of the staff members stated, “I cannot recommend this course highly enough. If you are considering it I would say go for it, put in the hours, apply the learning, and you will see a real difference.”

Since the start of the partnership, over 52 members of Parkinson’s UK staff have completed an IME course or participated in the learning webinars. Due to the continued high interest from staff, and the quality of content and service, Parkinson’s UK expanded its partnership with IME to provide additional learning opportunities for another 12 months.

The offering of IME’s training programs was met with high demand. The Parkinson’s UK employees were extremely motivated to participate, with management noticing immediate improvements in productivity. All attendees have agreed that IME’s programs were a positive experience, both professionally and personally and gave them a renewed sense of confidence in their roles and responsibilities. One participant commented, “every module contains gems of information and ideas that have practical application. Every module has links and references which spark my interest and send me off searching for more.”
