Train to Gain aims to encourage all businesses and individuals to value and understand the benefits that learning and skills can bring and invest appropriately. The specialist skills brokerage advice delivered through the Service is tailored to meet businesses’ individual needs. There are currently 4.3 million adults of working age in England who have no qualifications at all, which equates to one in seven adults in the working population. Train to Gain – the Government’s flagship service – was launched to support employers of all sizes and in all sectors to improve the skills of their employees. How does it work? It has never been easier for companies to find the right training for their employees. Through Train to Gain, you will be able to access the tailored advice of a skills broker. A skills broker will come and visit your business at a time most convenient to you and at no cost. They will then work with you to find the best training solutions for a whole raft of skills and qualifications. With Train to Gain, the investment in better skills is made easy. For example, the time consuming parts, such as finding suitable training providers or investigating possible funding opportunities, are also taken care of by your skills broker - leaving you free to manage your usual day-to-day business. Training may be conducted on-site to ensure minimum disruption. This means you don’t need to worry about employees missing out on their work and you can be assured they will apply their new job-specific skills directly into their working practices.

Here are some testimonials 
It's vital for the staff working here to be trained in all areas of craft bakery or they get into a rut. It's all too easy for trainees to get stuck making bread when there is a whole host of other bakery skills to be learnt which makes the job more interesting and their skills base more vast. The training also benefits us as it means the staff are clear about health and safety and hygiene practices. We're training staff from 16 year old apprentices to a member of staff that has worked in bakeries for much of her life but is receiving training for the first time. Trevor Jackson from the Derbyshire business, Jackson Bakery
I like the fact that the training can be done on-site so that it doesn't interfere with the day-to-day running of the business. Kershaws Garden Centre, Company Secretary, Mark Yates
Their professionalism has increased since the training took place. Previously they were uncomfortable talking to passengers, but now they have the skills to be able to greet them and communicate. Jean Drayton, Training Officer, Menzies Aviation
