Employers

There are many good reasons why you should encourage your employees to undertake higher level qualifications, not the least of which is that it makes good business sense.  Businesses have found that enabling employees to combine work and study has a range of business benefits including:

• recruiting and retaining high quality personnel
• bringing up-to-date ideas back into the business
• some courses can offer specific project support if your organisation is looking to develop a marketing plan or research new product developments
• you are able to 'grow your own' people so that their skills are linked very directly to the needs of your business
• you can avoid costly and time-consuming recruitment drives
