A dedicated new website has been launched to help employers and people working in the logistics sector to access advice and skills solutions through the Logistics Academy ➽ www.logisticsacademy.org. The Logistics Academy has developed a national network of quality assured training providers that offer a complete and specialised service for the sector. The academy delivers its services through a "hub and spoke" operation that employers can quickly access via the website or a dedicated telephone line, 0844 892 0557.
The Logistics Academy website is easy to access and navigate and gives help on:
-
how the academy works and what it can do for employers in the industry
-
information and links to other sources, plus contact details for the Logistics Academy regional hubs, giving access to their network of quality assured suppliers
-
a feedback facility to enable logistics employers to make their skills needs known and provide feedback on sector issues
-
content that has something for employers, learners and providers which will be developed in line with customer feedback
This new facility is an invaluable step in improving communication with employers large and small from across the industry and in promoting the academy brand and products.
The Logistics Academy has introduced a high quality "one stop service" for employers and those working in the logistics sector who want to access advice and skills development solutions through reputable quality assured services.
Craig Done, hub manager for the Logistics Academy East Midlands, said: "Creating the Logistics Academy website is a key step in promoting the Logistics Academy which has been set up with the support of Skills for Logistics in six of the English regions in order to provide easy to access quality assured training for employers."
Simon Harper, training and development manager, Port of Tilbury, said: "The new Logistics Academy website is an essential resource for all employers and individuals in the sector who are looking for reliable and high quality skills training. The network of academy providers can deliver flexible, cost effective and relevant services to a wide cross section of the industry."
