SkillsActive has launched a new Quality Training Portal (QTP) – an online resource featuring thousands of quality assured training courses – which it says will help Britain’s young unemployed find careers in the leisure industry.
The portal, available to the general public, hosts a database of three thousand pieces of quality assured training courses and qualifications from endorsed training providers. It is designed to assist those wishing to enter and develop careers in sport, fitness, outdoors, playwork, and hair or beauty sectors, by demonstrating how to acquire the relevant skills and qualifications.
The portal also houses detailed information on courses suitable for those seeking to progress their careers with further qualifications or in taking their expertise to the next level. Continuing Professional Development (CPD) training is important for keeping up-to-date with the latest developments in the sector, and all courses available on the portal offer CPD points to members of SkillsActive’s professional registers.
“In this competitive market, those starting or developing their careers in the leisure and wellbeing sectors need to arm themselves with the right skills and qualifications, said head of professional development at SkillsActive Tom Bell.
“The Quality Training Portal gives learners the confidence that the training available through this platform has all been independently quality assured by the industry.”
