Delivering apprenticeships, bespoke and accredited
courses to client groups across England.
Alphabet Training are approved nationally apprenticeship and training provider delivering bespoke and accredited courses to client groups across England.
Based in the North West of England, we deliver projects that:
Those four categories encompass a broad range of provision. That range can include anything from helping people to develop basic life skills and self-confidence, right through to providing business-owners with leadership and management coaching, or tailored learning programmes for whole teams of employees.
We deliver programmes focusing on employability, apprenticeships, work placements, business start-up, process improvement, IT skills, social inclusion and more. We work across all sectors, and with a variety of funding bodies, serving both SME and VCFS employers.
Our over-arching goal is to become a leading provider of choice for apprenticeships, work and community-based learning for employers and learners.
Since our launch, we have delivered numerous training and employability programmes. Here, we have listed just a few of them.

At Alphabet Training, we don’t operate all on our own. We have ties with hundreds of other organisations across the country – all important, for varying reasons. They include:
Alphabet Training is looking to be a leading provider of Adult Skills in the North West. We’re looking for potential partners who can provide quality education and cost-effectiveness. We particularly welcome applications from providers who already deliver in these areas, have qualifications and employer relationships in priority sectors, and have robust delivery models. If you’re interested in joining our supply chain, please contact Shabir Siddiq at shabir@alphabet-training.co.uk with any questions or for more information.
We work with over 400 small and medium sized businesses in the North West alone; companies that we help with workforce training, recruitment and coaching for their owners or senior managers. In return, many of them engage with us on employability programmes, providing work experience placements, giving talks or taking part on mock interviews to give candidate valuable practice. They also give us a valuable insight into the demands of local labour markets, so we can tailor or training support to meet real needs and give people the best possible chances of securing lasting employment.
Local councils and organisations such as JobCentre Plus are amongst some of our most important clients because they fund and manage a range of employability programmes. Colleges, too, are important to us because we may refer our learners to them for follow-on courses, or colleges may refer people to us. It’s a two-way process that maximise the support that we can direct to the people we support.
The third sector – that is to say voluntary, community and faith-based organisations – also work with us in mutually beneficial ways. They are often employers in their own right and they share many of the same goals as us in terms of improving people’s life chances. They may partner with us on projects to provide venues or added expertise, or simply to help us engage more effectively with people at a local community level.
We offer a range of accredited courses, so it’s important that we work well with the awarding bodies who develop them. Ongoing reporting and assessments help to ensure that we continue to deliver training to the highest standards, and the backing of these bodies ensures that people gain qualifications that are recognised and in tune with the needs of modern employers.
Many of our trainers are in-house staff but where additional expertise is required, we are fortunate to be able to call upon a host of technical experts. These associates cover a broad range of sectors and disciplines, and they undergo their own continuous professional development through their respective professional institutes.
