Nick Mitchell, CEO of The Training Foundation commented: “Capita Learning & Development is in the top bracket of premier league learning providers. When organisations of this stature adopt the TAP methodologies as a standard, it sends a very loud message. We have been demonstrating the effectiveness of TAP to Capita Group companies for a long time and it is extremely rewarding to now see this recognised by this partner relationship."

Capita Learning & Development is a leading provider of commercial training services and learning solutions to clients across the private and public sector. The company provides face-to-face training courses, blended and e-learning solutions and consultancy services, covering a broad spectrum of flexible learning paths across all subject areas of organisational development.

Capita L&D Training Development Director Stuart Lowry commented "The TAP® Partnership is a demonstration of our commitment to providing the highest quality standards in our training delivery. It is also an indication of how important we see the ongoing professional development of our learning professionals.”

"The Training Foundation has been instrumental in leading the drive for standards in training and has really driven the agenda. We have run a number of TAP® Delivery Skills sessions and the feedback has been incredible. All trainers have very much valued the importance of creating measurable objectives, the structure and the testing associated with the TAP® qualifications. Together with the in-depth feedback, our trainers have found the TAP® accreditation challenging and worthwhile."

"As a result of our partnership with The Training Foundation, we look forward to further driving professionalism and standards in the training room and ensuring that our delegates can apply their learning immediately and truly make a difference to their organisations."

Ron Mackrell Director of the TAP® Partner programme commented “Only a couple of weeks ago we were pleased to be able to announce that the 150th organisation had joined the programme. The attractiveness of TAP® partnership continues to grow and around six new organisations per month are currently becoming partners. This reflects TAP’s unique ability to assess and certify the skills of those charged with delivering learning services.”
