Business Centre Celebrates First Train to Gain Success

Newbury College Business Centre is celebrating the success of Dale Smith, their first learner to achieve an NVQ Level 2 qualification through the Train to Gain scheme. Dale, who has worked at Thatcham based company, EuroTech, as a Customer Support Operative since January 2006, gained his award in Customer Service.

“It’s really nice to have a qualification for the role I do,” said Dale. “Completing the award has helped me to improve in my role and has made me feel good that I still have the ability to learn new things and achieve a nationally recognised qualification quite some time after leaving school. It shows it’s never too late to achieve new goals – everyone should have a go!”

Paul Christie, EuroTech Technical Director added,” The training exercises Dale undertook has helped us to improve our level of service by giving us the opportunity to re-evaluate our current processes. We’ve always had a good relationship with our customers, but we’re now receiving thank you letters from them! Smaller companies can benefit most from the scheme as they gain the benefits of a motivated and enthusiastic workforce without loosing staff to offsite training. EuroTech really appreciate the help Newbury College Business Centre have given us to achieve our goals.”
