Ready, Set, Go!
We've finally got the green light! After months of planning and preparation Access Training is ready to open its third training centre at Stennack Road, Holmbush Industrial Estate in St Austell.
This fully equipped, wheelchair friendly venue boasts one large training room furnished with state-of-the-art LCD projection resources and two computer suites to provide our customers with a first class interactive learning environment. The central location and ample car parking makes the site easy to find and highly accessible which will enable customers to reach local services by foot within a matter of minutes.
The property will be opening its doors to customers for the first time on Friday 28th May as we welcome customers from our Community Task Force programme to pilot our new job search facilities. In future we will also be delivering our local training courses at the Stennack Centre to offer our customers a comfortable and well-resourced setting in which to build on their confidence and skills.
Access Training Serves Up a Feast of Hospitality Services at Taste of the West
The quality of the exhibitors at this year’s Source Exhibition and Taste of the West Trade Show was of a particularly high standard. For starters, the various displays boasted home-grown ingredients direct from the soil, accompanied by indulgent treats for the taste buds and topped off with superior local knowledge and expertise from packaging to printing. The two day event ran exceptionally smoothly and it was clear that everybody was impressed by the professional and efficient manner in which the showcase was organised by Hale Events.
Once again we received a fantastic response from local producers, suppliers and retailers who attended the highly reputable affair. From restaurants offering fine dining to deli shops providing farm-fresh produce, the individuals that we spoke to were all attracted by our competitive prices and ability to cater for small business or large corporate organisations. Our adaptable approach, mobile resource unit and base of widely dispersed trainers mean that we can deliver our courses at any convenient venue, depending on candidate numbers. Wherever our customers are, we can offer a friendly, local service that makes finding the right training solution simple!
Our extensive range of food safety courses appeals to those who work with food at all levels, whether they are in an operational or supervisory role. We believe that our training helps our customers to maintain the high levels of food quality which make the region’s hospitality industry such a success.
Access Training Goes On Tour!
After our recent success at Expo West 2010 event at the Royal Cornwall Showground in Wadebridge, Access Training has decided to exhibit at the forthcoming Source Exhibition & Taste of the West Trade Show at Westpoint Exhibition Centre in Exeter from the 19th - 20th April.
The well-established Expo West Exhibition, currently celebrating 30 years, matches many other national and international exhibitions in terms of visitor numbers. We greeted thousands of people, for whom tourism and hospitality is such a huge part of life, especially here in the South West.
We were delighted to be exhibiting amongst some of Cornwall’s finest local producers and retailers. It was a great chance for us to meet local people as well as those from further afield, with representatives from smaller businesses to large corporate organisations. However, it was clear to us that both individuals and companies are beginning to realise the importance of high quality training and the benefits that it can bring to any organisation by developing their own skills as well as those of their staff.
We found that, as always, there was a lot of interest in our food hygiene and food safety courses, particularly the Level 3 courses aimed at those with supervisory roles. But people were also curious about our new range of courses in Health & Safety and First Aid training, accredited by Highfield Awarding Body for Compliance (HABC), areas which are becoming increasingly more important as new legislation is introduced.
These exhibitions are a fantastic opportunity for us to meet our customers and business partners face-to-face, to show them how our open and friendly approach sets us apart and to build on those relationships which matter so much to us.
We are very excited about meeting all those people who are interested in the services that we have to offer at the Source Exhibition & Taste of the West Trade Show at Westpoint Exhibition Centre in Exeter from the 19th - 20th April. We will be situated at stand A20 equipped with full details of all our courses ranging from the licensed trade to food safety, first aid and security. We will also be showing off some of our innovative, state-of-the-art visual learning aids.
We look forward to seeing you there! For your free ticket, please contact Natasha Michell on 01726 77600.
