Our Clients

International SOS Pioneer DJ

"The TrainingU team were extremely helpful, flexible and accommodating where we needed it. Nothing was too much trouble. The standard of resources provided and face-to-face sessions delivered by TrainingU was excellent. We had never offered a learning & development project that was as fully blended as this before and ‘minimum disruption’ was the key. We did not want any staff to experience disruption to their work and TrainingU, along with our IT Support team, worked hard to ensure this did not happen."

Carolyn Oxley, HR Manager, The Big Lottery Fund

"Training U have delivered a great customised learning experience for our Finance Graduate and School Leaver population, noted by the copious amount of great feedback I get from the cohort thanking us for putting the training plan in place.  It is extremely important to us that our high potential learners obtain the soft skills vital to their future careers, preparing them for Management positions once they leave the Early Careers Finance Scheme.  I find Training U very easy to deal with, they always keep me informed on progress and feedback, and I would definitely recommend them to other organisations."

Georgia Slade, Internal Control Manager

"The training that we book is always excellent, and the feedback forms reflect this every time. Training U is very professional in all aspects of training and so is the administration that goes with each training course.  All the team are very approachable, and they always go out of their way to help you, nothing is too much trouble for them all. I would have no hesitation in recommending Training U."

Sonia Marsh, HR Administration Manager, The Whitbread Academy
