CCB Delivers £18m in Training over 10 years

Ten years ago The Cornwall College Group (TCCG) merged their business facing arms together to create CCB (Cornwall College Business) enabling them to restructure their business offer as a professional training provider, to better reflect the needs of their business customers.

CCB recognises that business needs are constantly changing due to external factors and challenges including; legislation, taxation, employment, government policies and the recent vote to leave the EU. Developing skills for business and keeping those skills up-to-date has been recognised as crucial by businesses to help them manage these external factors. CCB has worked with over 9,000 businesses throughout Cornwall and Devon over the last ten years to deliver approximately £18m of professional training to help businesses reach their goals.

Holly Hipkins, Finance Director at The Park commented: “The team at CCB has been supportive throughout all aspects of the training, and tailored the days to specifically meet our needs, helping us invest in our staff.”

Tracey Weeks, Operation Manager at Crantock Bakery also commented: “The training to-date has provided a platform for future development allowing us to grow our staff’s knowledge, with the intent that we will reduce waste, increase yield and productivity by having a skilled and engaged workforce.”

CCB offer a wide range of training from business skills workshops, professional qualifications including: Association of Accounting Technician (AAT), Chartered Management Institute (CMI) Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS), Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), NEBOSH and many more. As well as bespoke tailored training and consultancy enabling CCB to find the right training solution for businesses.

Nemone West, Procurement Officer at Plymouth City Council said: “The CIPS training has enabled me to upskill in procurement, taking on more responsibility and operate as part of a team to effectively manage the council’s supply chain to reduce costs and improve quality.”

Sally Foard, Group Director Development at The Cornwall College Group, said: “For the last ten years CCB has been uniquely placed to deliver world class professional training. Our breadth of courses demonstrates how industry bodies recognise and respect our ability to deliver professional qualifications effectively. We are proud to support the economies of Cornwall and Devon and we are looking forward to the next ten years.”
