Apprenticeships Boom Means Office Growth for North East Training Provider

A leading Stokesley-based training provider, Bespoke Professional Development and Training Ltd (BePro), is celebrating its rapid apprenticeships growth with an office move.

BePro is widely known for its accredited courses in HR and management, and experienced a surge in demand in 2017 after being placed on the register of apprenticeship training providers. BePro is one of few companies to be able to offer HR apprenticeships at both foundation and advanced level, alongside a suite of other professional apprenticeships including Team Leading, Business Admin and Recruitment.

From December 2017 BePro will occupy a 900 sq foot office on Stokesley Business Park to accommodate its growing operations. The premises are complete with a fully equipped in house training room.

Rocketing university tuition fees and a desire to ‘earn as you learn’ have led to a renewed interest in apprenticeships. Employers are benefiting from grant schemes offering up to 100% funding and the ability to retrain their existing staff no matter their age. The trend has led to BePro signing apprenticeship contracts with organisations including the NHS, Bellway Homes and Cleveland Police.

Speaking about the office move, BePro Managing Director Val Swales commented: “The growth we’ve seen over the past year is incredible. We’ve expanded our team and invested in our online learning platform, so the office move was the next logical step.

The larger space gives us a great base to deliver more courses in house as well as being a centre of operations for our classes across the north east and UK-wide apprenticeships.

Local businesses have a valuable resource on their doorstep. We tailor training to their individual needs, all of which can be accredited by internationally renowned awarding bodies. Plus, having our own training facilities means we can continue to offer competitive prices.

We’ve created a business structure that gives our learners more support and flexibility than ever; allowing them complete qualifications at their own pace whether studying online or in taught classes.”
