Avonleigh Gardens

 

Care Train to Gain


"Avonleigh Gardens is one of 60 residential homes which comes under the umbrella of the Methodist Homes for the Aged. The company identified a need to improve the skills of their employees but were unsure of what training was available and how to select the right course. The Oldham College have helped Avonleigh Gardens deliver 18 NVQs since 2000.

“We like working with the Oldham College because they are willing to fit the training around our requirements. I find The Oldham College assessor to be very understanding to the business’ needs as well as the learner. They offer us a complete service for all our staff and I would recommend them wholeheartedly to another interested employer.”
