We offer a range of services to help people across the Black Country progress their careers.

Working across Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton, our teams work in partnership with local employers and the Black Country Local Enterprise Partnership to provide relevant training linked to the local labour market.

The region has healthy construction, warehousing, healthcare, hospitality and manufacturing industries.

As Britain’s leading provider of skills training, we know what works to help you have a successful career. We have great links with local and national employers like Amazon, Tesco, Wagamama, Owen Payne, ILS and Linsco – and after undertaking training with us, you could even land a guaranteed interview with them.
