On Thursday 1st July West Kent College held a business breakfast event to launch the Windsor Groups portfolio of business courses. The event provided an opportunity for local employers to find out how the extensive range of training courses can help their leadership and management skills and develop staff teams.
The newly merged West Kent College with South Kent College has been a proactive member of The Windsor Group and has been instrumental in delivering this range of dedicated development courses to the market
Those who attended the event enjoyed a free breakfast in the comfortable surroundings of the brand new College premises in the professional development centre. They also got the opportunity to network with other companies, listen to key speakers from industry and training sectors in the South’s active business community, and learn about what leadership and management funding may be available to them.
“It was a great opportunity to hear about the merger and what West Kent/Windsor Group can do with us. Steve Hulse (Guest Speaker, HR and Training Manager, Southern Salads Ltd) was just the chap I needed to meet to inspire me!” Wendy Coxeter, Training Manager, Mack Multiples.
“It was a very positive event in an inspiring new environment. I look forward to helping local businesses gain access to funding to help them progress with the training that is on offer.” Kathy De Koningh, Leadership and Management Advisor, Skills Southeast.
“The breakfast event was a great success. It gave local employers the opportunity to discuss what training the Windsor Group of Colleges can offer, view our fantastic new facilities where training onsite takes place, and to see the facilities that are available to them for hire. Our facilitator workshop also gave them a taste of our training delivery style to professional organisations, which was a fun session and everyone was involved.” Leah Buckingham-Warner, Business Development Sales Team Manager, WKC.'
