Developing Opportunities to Keep Ahead of the Curve

Cannock, United Kingdom, May 13, 2009 --(PR.com)-- In these challenging times, all businesses have to manage their costs within tight parameters. This sometimes means cutting expenditure from their budget and in many cases training is one of the first items to be reduced or cut entirely. This is a decision based on the belief that training is not essential to the day to day running of the business. However, research has shown that businesses that do not train their workforce are 2 ½ times more likely to fail than those businesses that do. This is why Performance Through People (PTP) are supporting the training needs of businesses within the West Midlands with the provision of funding that can be used for a wide range of development programmes.

One business that has already taken advantage of this funding is Nant Ltd; a West Midlands based company who provide water treatment services across the region. Chris Green, the Managing Director, has worked closely with PTP for a number of years and was eager to take the opportunity provided by the funding initiative. “I used the funding provided by PTP to benefit from their Marketing Strategies training. After implementing the strategic approach identified in this programme I gained an order for £120,000. This is one of many programmes that have been extremely beneficial to me and my staff”. Performance Through People are looking forward to helping many more businesses achieve such success by supporting the achievement of their training objectives.
