Leeds City College GROWS businesses in the region with new venture
Leeds City College is launching a new venture that aims to support businesses in the Leeds city region.
Beginning on July 20th,The new GROW initiative aims to deliver a series of workshop to help business owners with skills development and support business growth in the region.
GROW workshops will complement the college’s bespoke in-house training option whereby eligible companies can be part funded through the LEP Skills Service.
Delivered by industry experts, the training workshops will consist of short courses on topics such as sales, search engine marketing, social media and funding for training. These will be charged per person to allow access for smaller businesses.
Gary Crow, business service advisor at Leeds City College, said: “The GROW Training Café makes training more accessible to countless small local businesses.
“Previously our bespoke in-house training service made it unviable for SMEs that didn’t have a group of employees with the same needs.
“Adding The GROW Training Café to our range of services makes us more flexible and cost effective to the local businesses that drive the region’s economy”
