More qualified coaches for Kirklees Council

We are delighted to be part of continuing to help Kirklees Council towards developing a coaching culture right across the organisation. Last Thursday we hosted a celebration event at Huddersfield’s Media Centre to recognise the accreditation of 20 new coaches to ILM level 5 standards. The qualification involves the successful participation in a 5 day skills programme along with practising 12 hours of coaching on workplace issues.

I’ve never experienced a training provider like Azure, we view the team as an integral part of our business. They always provide a creative, bespoke solution that is far superior compared to your ‘standard’ providers – with Azure it’s a consultative process. I know where Sue and the team are when I want to speak to them about our forthcoming training requirements.
