WATCH: Find out how The Learning Foundry can help you dream big and kickstart your career

Who says you can’t dream big?

With the right skills and the right opportunities, we can all strive to be our best.

And whether you’re someone who’s looking to expand your horizons and land that longed-for role, or you’re a company wanting to make sure you find the right people to help you flourish, The Learning Foundry can help you do it.

With more than 25 years’ experience, the Liverpool-based organisation is focused on helping people and businesses achieve their full potential.

Managing director Claire Lee says:

“The Learning Foundry’s aim is to give everyone the opportunity to shine, grow and thrive. We’re passionate about providing training and employment opportunities for local people, and upskilling businesses though our talent solutions.” 

And they can do that with a unique two-pronged approach.

Because A-levels and traditional qualifications aren’t for everyone, for employees and learners The Learning Foundry offers an alternative to school and college, with fun and engaging courses and learning delivered differently than you might remember.

It’s designed to suit individuals, with training programmes that can lead directly to a range of jobs and employment possibilities.

And, with loads of links to local employers, it’s perfectly placed to actively help people progress.

The Learning Foundry works with a range of businesses and local authorities like Liverpool City Region Combined Authority and the Good Business Festival to create unique opportunities. It can help secure job interviews and exclusive access to work experience; and – especially in this National Apprenticeship Week – help find the right apprenticeship to give you vital skills for work you want to do to create a lasting and fulfilling career.

For businesses, The Learning Foundry can take the hassle and pressure out of recruiting and training.

For instance, if you’re looking to grow your existing team it can help you find the right people or apprentices who’ll fit in with those already there, and if you’ve got the right people but they don’t quite have the necessary expertise, it can upskill your existing employees – always working closely with you and using its knowledge and experience to make sure you adopt the best approach.

It doesn’t even matter how big or small you are, it can provide large-scale programmes as well as a more personal service for smaller concerns.

Again, it has the support of its trusted and highly-valued partner organisations to ensure everyone succeeds, and it’s part of The Regenda Group, a regeneration business with a heart forging links across the North West, so it’s offering more opportunities while delivering social value too.

“We have strong achievement rates and satisfaction,” it says. “Our learners, employers, and partners love us!”

Employers can find out more when The Learning Foundry hosts the biggest ever breakfast networking event at its Renshaw Street campus on Thursday, March 9.

It’s a chance to get together to make new contacts and discover more about a development plan to provide future employees through apprenticeships and funded training.
