What’s O
n Offer
Supporting Business Growth and SuccessTraining can often be the first port of call for businesses looking to achieve cost-savings during times of economic uncertainty, but for anyone considering cutting their training budget, it is worth first considering how learning and development can support business and organisational success.
Delivering Quality and Affordable Training
We understand that businesses need access to the very best training and development practices for their teams in order to enhance organisational competitiveness. City College Plymouth can support you in accessing training and development, which is not only of a high quality, but is also affordable.
We have access to government funding, which can significantly subsidise training costs - sometimes up to 100%. Our non-subsidised courses are competitively priced too, as we know just how important it is for you to gain real value for money.
Bespoke Training ProgrammesWe acknowledge the fact that the financial implications of undertaking training feature high up on your agenda, but we are also aware that you require training to not only provide you with a workforce who can gain nationally recognised training and qualifications but also to meet your specific business needs and objectives. This is why we offer a fully bespoke service to clients, working with you to produce a training programme, which really adds value, by supporting workforce development and business success.
Wide Range of Business and Commercial ServicesFrom National Vocational Qualifications to Apprenticeships, and short courses through to a range of business essentials workshops and seminars, professional study and higher level skills, City College Plymouth can help support the development of your workforce.
Many of our courses are accredited by nationally recognised awarding bodies, including NEBOSH, CMI and City & Guilds. Training and courses offered by us, which are accredited, are highlighted throughout this guide.
This guide provides an overview of the services we offer to businesses, but is not exhaustive, as we are able to provide bespoke training and courses to meet your individual employer needs. It is designed to help you find the right training for your business and to highlight the other commercial services we are able to offer, including print, corporate hospitality and facility hire. If there is training that you need to support your business success and we don’t appear to offer it within this guide, just call us on 01752 305026 or e-mail [email protected] and we will endeavour to assist you.

A good foundation in literacy and numeracy is essential in life and even more so in the world of work. We can support your workforce in improving their maths and English skills so they gain in confidence and competency - and they are FREE!
Ian Watson, Union Learning Representative at South West Water, worked with City College Plymouth to develop a Skills for Life programme, which would improve literacy skills whilst developing a greater understanding of health and safety in the workplace.
Ian commented: “The benefits of Skills for Life are immeasurable as it removes fears and long held beliefs about a person’s own ability. I have seen first-hand how people who have lacked confidence have become more confident when all they needed was extra support.”
Ian continued: “On completion of this course I have seen a real increase in the self-confidence of individuals, which has motivated them to enrol onto other courses, and has enabled them to really improve their communication skills and levels of confidence.
“This is of great benefit to the business, especially at a time when the business is working through the biggest change to working practices I can remember. It is important that all employees develop their skills, and for many Skills for Life is the first step on that path.”

Funding Currently Available!* Delivered mainly in the workplace, these qualifications support the changing operational needs of industry, which now require a much more flexible approach to training. Employees undertaking a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) are fully supported via the College’s team of professional, industry specific assessors.
With funding* currently available to support NVQ training, why not see what NVQs could offer your business? The Duke of Cornwall’s Director of Operations, Jon Morcom, is certainly a fan of NVQs: “Since we started to use City College Plymouth for our training, staff turnover has reduced dramatically. Staff who are undertaking NVQs feel that they are valued and that they have something to aim for in terms of progression - they see employment with the Duke of Cornwall as a career rather than just a job.”
