Educational Consultancy Service
Start Your Own Training Provider
If you’re thinking of starting your own bespoke, accredited, or government-funded training provider, or if you are already running one but a problem has been identified, Brooks and Kirk can help you.
Welcome to our Educational Consultancy Service
Our service covers everything from where to begin with starting your own training company, to staffing, quality assurance, and more. You don’t need to be an existing customer of ours or tie your company into a length contract; our service is there for when you need it.
Step One
Are your staff appropriately trained?
If you’re thinking about starting your own accredited training provider, your team will need at least one fully qualified Lead Internal Quality Assurer, and one fully qualified Assessor. These must be separate entities, though you as the business owner can be one of them. If both parties also hold a Tutor training qualification, that is beneficial.
Both Internal Quality Assurer and Assessor will need to have occupational competence in the area you intend your training company to be delivering qualifications.
