Why Choose Us?
New Career Skills (NCS) is one of the fastest growing companies in the UK over the last 4 years and have featured in The Sunday Times Fast Track 100. With over 5,000 career changers trained on our Programmes to date and many featured in the local and national press including the Sun, Mail, Independent, BBC radio etc we are the serious career changers only natural choice.
NCS is fully accredited by all the industry awarding bodies including City & Guilds (with whom we have recently worked to develop the future of ‘Green Awards’); BPEC; LOGIC and EAL. These accreditations are a guarantee that we consistently demonstrate quality green training and high pass marks. Our success rates are so high (90% +) that City & Guilds allow us to develop and make awards without them checking all our students' portfolios – we are one of only a few in the country allowed to do this!
Because NCS is a non-traditional training provider we are renowned for our ‘extras’ which we believe are more important than the course element of our Programmes – getting people into jobs or helping them become self-employed.
We are now naturally the first port of call for many employers looking for staff and we have a specialist recruitment division which is 100% dedicated to helping people find work. We don’t charge either the employer or you for this service – it is truly free!
The self-employment option is very popular amongst our students and we have enjoyed national press coverage on a range of success stories we’ve helped happen.
