Training and development provides both the company as a whole and the individual employees with benefits that make the cost and time a worthwhile investment. Well planned and delivered continuing professional development (CPD) is important because it delivers benefits to the individual, their profession and the public.

They say the most learning is done when ideas are being bounced off one another. In-house training brings different members of staff from all areas of a company together. This can mean that people gain a greater awareness of what each department does and how, as a company, they can move forward, working together, with their new knowledge from the tailored in-house training.

CIBSE Training offers a wide variety of building services courses, from introductory to more advanced levels. Their trainers are experienced practitioners who bring both a technical and practical knowledge of their subjects.
