Case Studies
"Ferranti Technologies Ltd is a respected and established supplier to the Aerospace and Defence Markets. They required team leader training for semi skilled technicans and more experienced team leaders. The Oldham College visited Ferranti on site to understand what their requirements were and tailored courses to their needs. "Some of the individuals had little or no experience of the role. The course has given them a sound base and understanding on what the role entails. The Production Manager has already seen evidence of this through good time management skills, clear presentation work and improved communication skills throughout the company.
The standard of the project work undertaken by the Team Leaders was excellent.
The Course Tutor also worked with the Team Leaders on producing a presentation that was delivered to our Managing Director at the end of the course. This was a requirement by our company and not part of the course content.
The company would definitely use the college again for future training requirements and would have no hesitation in recommending them to other companies."
