A number of our team are certified “Train the Trainers” which allows them to train not only external candidates but staff within the business to continue this work and development. This has allowed us to professionally grow our team and those who are able to deliver training in their specialised subject.
Our Managers and Recruiters have a huge amount of experience and knowledge in the employment sector. We are able to deliver precise, effective, engaging training in a way that leaves people feeling positive and motivated. Our Regional Manager heads up a professional team who are trained to deliver this on behalf of MC Personnel
MC Personnel are also proud to be part of the Women in Recruitment initiative. MC Personnel has a history of being owned and managed by women. Whilst we employ people from all genders and walks from life, we are particularly proud of our history and ongoing progress.
Women in Recruitment was formed to give all recruitment firms practical support in attracting, developing and retaining their female talent, as well as providing a tangible demonstration of a commitment to gender equality for clients and candidates. It gives individuals access to unique development tools, mentoring and networking opportunities designed to support successful and sustainable careers in recruitment. Their overall goal is simply, and inline with MC Personnel’s goals and business plans – to inform, advise and assist organisations in understanding the business opportunities associated with gender equality, and establish the recruitment profession as a brand of excellence in diversity and inclusion practices.
MC Personnel has over 20 years experience in creating and delivering training solutions to a wide variety of industries. These include Industrial, Commercial, Transportation and Events training.
Training Delivered – Examples
MC Personnel has over 20 years experience in creating and delivering training solutions to a wide variety of industries. These include Industrial, Commercial, Transportation and Events training.
These courses are delivered through a range of methods and programmes including face to face, online and virtual, telephone and learning materials.
Our packages can be tailor made to suit an individual business needs and requirements.
Most recently our programmes have been adapted to work with the Kickstart Scheme. As experienced recruiters who employ and deliver training to a number of Young people and Apprentices every year, the series of courses have been adapted to fit the Wrap around Employability support as required by the scheme. Even more recently we have adapted these methods of delivery to encompass on line e-learning which can be accessed at any time, from anywhere i.e. PC, Tablet, Mobile.
Using a specifically designed system to deliver bite size training, record the courses, time spent and log in time we are able to support, coach and encourage learners to get the best out of their training. The system allows for direct messaging, task and goal setting and advice to be exchanged between learner and trainer easily and simply. Videos and demos are available to aid visual learning with encouragement on the Young person to move at a speed that suits them as well as the Employer.
Our Solution and Approach
To deliver Kickstart Employability skills there is a requirement to evidence that your placements are being provided with support so they have the optimum opportunity to secure long term work once their 6-month placement has been completed.
MC Personnel are able to deliver a service which will ensure this is carried out efficiently, simply with maximum effect whilst evidencing job skills and job search capability by the end.
The level of support you require can be further discussed and agreed, MC Personnel are confident from the information already provided that we can deliver this as it is already being achieved on a continual and successful basis.
MC Personnel will enrol all placements on to an adapted, training portal system where they will receive a combination of virtual and in person training, much of which is bite sized to fit in comfortably around their work placement and to ensure they stay engaged and focused, all whilst developing their learning and skills. This includes:
- Dynamic CV Creation
- Employment advice incl eLearning in our Advice Centre
- Employability learning plan specifically configured for Kickstart
- Integrated Zoom meetings, one 2 one or group sessions
- Activity managment, recording of time spent, pass marks etc.
