Following their recent success in the UK Enterprise Awards 2020, we profiled the family firm to discover more about their award-winning training programmes. Best First Aid & Security Consultancy 2020 Based in the West Midlands, Golbourn Training Solutions is a family run training and consultancy company who follow the professional, affordable and flexible core values. Boasting clients across the UK in all sectors, the firm’s approach to their training and consultancy has built them an enviable reputation in the industry for not only delivering a first-class service, but one which is effective and personalised. Offering a vast range of courses and services, the core subjects Golbourn Training Solutions teach and consult in are First Aid, Health and Safety, Mental Health First Aid, Safeguarding, Fire Safety, Manual Handling, Security Lockdown and Serious Incident Control Measures to name but a few. The team also run a number of Team Building events. For many businesses, one of the main challenges of partaking in mandatory courses, is allowing team members time off to attend sessions. How Golbourn Training Solutions addresses this issue is by ensuring that all of their courses are able to be delivered around their clients’ needs, with bespoke training provided over hours or days delivered during the day, evening or weekend, whichever is better suited for the client. Additionally, with their courses, the dreaded ‘mandatory training’ is a thing of the past. Instead, the firm adapt all of their courses around each and every learner to maximise not only their individual experience, but the experience for the group as a whole. The right environment, the right atmosphere and the right instructor can get the best out of everyone. Training courses unfortunately can be a little tedious or intense, depending on the topic. For Golbourn Training Solutions, they strongly believe in making training fun, interactive and importantly realistic. The firm ensures that their training is as true to life as possible with the use of casualty simulation and job related scenarios. The training provided is not only fun and realistic, but it is also a crucial learning tool. For example, when a first aider is in an emergency situation, their training and muscle memory will make the difference. As Golbourn Training Solutions states, “Learning is developing, developing is investing, investing is securing success for the future.” As for what the future holds, the team are currently updating their Serious Incident Control Measures course which they created and launched four years ago. In the last four years, Golbourn Training Solutions have trained Local Authorities, Schools, Shopping venues and Universities. Currently, they are the only company in the UK who provides this course. This insightful course provides organisations with the training and awareness to deter, prepare for and manage serious incidents. This qualification will also qualify staff to provide catastrophic bleed and on scene trauma care. Another benefit of this course is that it is bespoke to each organisation, this is to ensure that Golbourn Training Solutions provides them with the best training to cover the possible threats their clients might face as an organisation and/or individuals. Throughout the years, Golbourn Training Solutions have also adapted their very successful corporate team building days to be family friendly. These adventure days take families to new levels of fun Jun20369 and excitement. Developing new life skills designed to promote and improve, personal and family motivation, confidence, leadership, communication, forward thinking and most importantly family fun. The Covid-19 pandemic has certainly meant businesses have had to change the way they operate, and Golbourn Training Solutions have altered their training accordingly. Today, the firm’s First Aid courses have been developed to be COVID-19 safe, with Golbourn Training Solutions solidifying their status as standard setters in the industry. Showing no signs of slowing down, even during a pandemic, Golbourn Training Solutions is certainly a company to watch in the years to come, especially as they continue to deliver their exceptional services to a diverse range of businesses across the UK.
