Graduate Training Schemes

In the Digital Economy a successful grad scheme starts with tech!

What better way to attract and retain new graduates than by offering a desirable employment package, emphasising your organisation's commitment to developing your staff in leading-edge technology as well as project, communication and team effectiveness skills.

Show prospective employees that you are willing to invest in their futures - it will give them the confidence to become loyal, productive members of your business.

The formula is simple:

Hire
Train
Motivate
Retain

Combining theory and practice

Intensive instructor-led training is great when you need a quick skills boost – say, to get a quick intro to the fundamentals of a technology. For most learning, a more rounded and comprehensive approach works best. If you take the time to absorb topics at a pace that allows for exploration, the lessons stick.

A favoured format combines classroom study with self-paced project work, plus short bursts of mentoring. We find this mix of approaches helps to embed new skills and knowledge so they can be instantly used in practice.

Our clients say they get real and immediate value from our blended approach. They notice enhanced productivity and individual growth that helps to enrich teams and carry them further. Time and again we are told that our training is money well spent.
