Following its assessment this month by the British Institute for Learning & Development (the BILD), Creativedge Training today confirms that it has now secured the BILD Quality Mark (QM) http://www.thebild.org/.

Having its operations assessed by BILD comes as part of the company’s continued drive to deliver and meet the highest possible standards of workplace training and learning.

The BILD Quality Mark is fast becoming one of the key Learning and Development industry awards issued by a professional institute focused solely on learning and development. It challenges existing training quality standards by reviewing the policies and processes around the actual training. By doing so, customers can have greater confidence in the quality of their chosen training provider.

Companies applying for the BILD QM must meet criteria set out in 12-point checklist which is reviewed and discussed with the company by a BILD assessor. Each item on the checklist is assessed out of a score of 5 (a maximum score of 60 points in total). Details of current companies which carry the BILD QM are available at http://www.thebild.org/Quality-Assurance/Quality-Mark-Awarded.html.

As Mark Rose Managing Director of Creativedge Training explains, “We are delighted to carry the BILD QM because it helps to differentiate our organisation from competitors who don’t possess a quality assurance award. It also endorses our ability to deliver training, learning, development, education, products and services to a high standard set by a respected organisation, and our adherence to continuous improvement. This carries significant weight with both existing and prospective clients. It’s also an effective indicator for current and prospective employees for the high standard of work we achieve, so enabling us to attract and retain talented people.”

Rich Wootten, Business Manager at the BILD who conducted the assessment adds, “Creativedge Training is a perfect example of a company which will really benefit from the BILD QM. Just as the BILD is a centre of excellence for the learning and development community because of its identification and dissemination of trends for emerging and new technologies, so Creativedge bears many of the same hallmarks for its own business.”

The BILD QM is held by a company for three years and is reviewed annually thereafter.
