Investment in development
Central Training Services encourages each member of our staff; instructors, support staff and management, to advance themselves and as a result everyone has achieved at least one Vocational Qualification in a related field and all staff continue to refresh and develop their skills. In recognition of these achievements, every 3 years since 1997, we have been successfully re-assessed for The Investors in People Award.

Annually, since 1994, BSI has successfully re-assessed our quality system to BS EN ISO 9001: 2008. Our latest achievement has been to be successfully re-assessed for the Gold Award from Healthy Working Lives; further proof that Central Training Services practice what we preach in relation to looking after, and training, staff.
