We deliver effective training solutions to hundreds of organisations around the UK each year, from small start-up companies through to large multi-national blue-chip organisations. Our flexible style and professional service means that no matter what size your organisation is, we have the in-house expertise and UK coverage to deliver exceptional training programmes at a price which is cost effective.
We have access to Tutors from all over the UK, culminating in a resource rich in knowledge and experience from across hundreds of disciplines and sectors - not withstanding the fact that we have hundreds of Tutors outside of the UK from within our Global Network.
Our Service
Classroom training: Public courses
Bureau Veritas hosts a range of public courses throughout the year, which are held centrally at many of our training centres across the UK (see our schedule for all available public courses and locations). Our open courses represent a convenient and cost effective training solution for smaller groups of employees or individuals.
Our public training courses are available to all employees from all organisations. For some of our courses we recommend prior knowledge or experience of the subject-matter (see individual courses for more information).
Our courses are delivered by industry-experts who boast a wealth of knowledge and technical expertise. We use a range of learning techniques and resources to deliver effective and realistic training solutions to clients from all backgrounds and we include time for workshops, exercises and role-play in many of our courses.
At the very minimum all our delegates receive a Certificate of Attendance. For some courses we require a minimum level of competence to be displayed and this is normally assessed continuously by our Tutors through exercises, workshops, and in some cases an examination. Those delegates who successfully demonstrate a sound level of learning and who fulfil the minimum pass criteria will receive a Certificate of Successful Completion (see individual courses for further information).
Courses vary from half-day awareness sessions, designed specifically to increase general awareness or update knowledge in certain fields, to more structured and thorough learning programmes which can last up to 5 days.
Classroom training: In-house Courses
All of the training courses you see on this website are available for delivery at your premises, or venue of your choice. In-house courses are priced 'per course' rather than 'per delegate' and give organisations far greater flexibility with respect to controlling their accommodation, catering and travel expense.
Why not have Bureau Veritas tailor a course around your company's specific learning and competency objectives (?) Please see our section on bespoke training, below.
BV Online (eLearning)
We also offer e-learning services which deliver a wide range of interactive training and assessment modules. These modules can be delivered either as stand-alone training programmes, or as part of a blended learning package – learning through a face-to-face training delivery combined with elements of eLearning (read more on our BV Online page).
Bespoke learning
With the exception of our externally approved training courses (IOSH / IRCA / BOHS / IEMA), all of our other training programmes can be fully tailored to meet your companys needs. Bespoke courses can include for example, your companys policies, procedures, or even specific learning concepts and modules. Please contact a member of our team to discuss your requirements.
Our Partners
We have a range of externally approved training courses for each of the main disciplines in which we provide training services (Health & Safety, Environmental Management and Sustainability etc). These are particulary useful for organisations or individuals who are seeking to cement professional experience alongside industry recognised qualifications.
Our partnerships include:
- Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH)
- British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS)
- Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA)
- International Register of Certificated Auditor (IRCA)
