Focusing on the topic

Tutor led training course can ensure that teams remained focused on the topic with fewer distractions and interruptions, away from their usual working environment where the chances of being distracted by other work issues and colleagues can be prevented.

Discussing issues with colleagues

E-learning can be useful for very straight forward topics with ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ answers, but many of the training topics in the young people, education and disabilities sector require much more focus on human soft skills and the success of the training will thrive on the opportunity for teams to discuss their experiences and questions.

Sharing ideas

Face to face training enables people who may have had similar experiences to share their ideas, thoughts and opinions and to gain new ideas and views from others.

Rewarding achievement

Providing staff training shows that you care about people’s development and can help retain staff, whilst taking teams out of their usual working environment and dedicating time and energy into the face to face training process, demonstrate the value the company puts on training, which can encourage teams to take the training seriously.

Getting people together

The usual working environment can be busy and by taking time out for face to face training, it can enable people to spend some valuable time together as team members to reflect on their work, experiences and develop their own positive working relationships.

Here at Ringway Training we’re marking World Mental Health day on the 10th October 2020 by show casing some of the great work our customers have been doing this year and provide some advice on the kind of training that may be suitable for your organisation.

Training cost savings

Whilst its easy to think in-house training by an external company might stretch budgets, its worth thinking again, cost per head is typically from just £30. In addition to this, you don’t have to pay for the travel and possible accommodation costs to get your employees to an external training centre, this could save you a significant amount.

Tailored training for you

Running an in-house training course allows the training to be a lot more focused on the specific subjects and skills that are relevant to your business. Public scheduled courses and e-learning will often be generic for businesses of any sector or size that attend them.

We can use current work examples

Training In-House means the courses can be prepared to fix your individual issues using real life examples and therefore have the most effect. People will be able to think about current work or examples of work which relates to their roles not a generic example.

Convenience

Organising training for a group of people all with their own schedules can be a very difficult task. However by having In-House training courses in your own building it can make working around people’s schedules a lot easier people can be easily reached if something urgent crops up. Plus its in an environment people know and are familiar with which is more relaxing and productive learning environment.

Encourage interaction and team building

Having a room of people from different teams and levels can encourage team work and communication. This is a great result as it is often in this social learning that the most learning is done when ideas are being bounced off each other. This will also likely lead to increased awareness and understanding of each other’s roles as well as staff morale.

Everyone at Ringway Training would like to say a huge thank you to all of our wonderful customers. We truly appreciate that you have chosen us to provide you with training for your organization and we hope that our commitment to quality has continued to shine through.

We would also like to give a special mention to the many teams who, over the Christmas season, will be continuing to make sure that vulnerable children, young people and adults remain safe and cared for. We look forward to seeing you all again in 2020 and we wish you a wonderful festive season!

Best wishes

You can’t turn at the moment without hearing about GDPR, but there is a temptation to think it mainly applies to tech businesses, email marketing and social media but social care business and organisations may be surprised by how much data they actually handle – and often sensitive data.

GDPR came into force on 25th May 2018 and although its late there is no time like the present to ensure you’re compliant. Our data protection training course has been designed for social care and education organisations and so deals directly with typical scenarios of these type of businesses.
