First it was Tesco in 2006, then the Royal Agricultural College in 2009 and now in 2012 it's the Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM) that's recognised the quality of training and development programmes offered by us. So we are proud to announce that MorePerformance is now an ILM Recognised Training Provider. 

At MorePeople we pride ourselves on really understanding the sectors we represent. Our team has experience of working in these sectors as well as recruiting for them, and it's this experience that led us to establish our training and development business, MorePerformance in 2004.

The sectors we work in are dynamic and challenging, and the competition for talented people is pretty fierce. The real quality, career minded, candidates are always seeking opportunities for long term personal and professional development. We recognise that and over the last 8 years we've worked hard with our clients to develop a range of class leading training and development programmes that truly reflect their needs today.

With the UK's largest retailer, the English speaking world's oldest land based university and now Europe's largest awarding body for courses in leadership and management all giving us the thumbs up, we are justifiably proud of the programmes we offer.

But what does this mean for you? Well we already know our programmes are effective - our clients tell us that but we also know it's always nice for you to have some independent assurance that our training is of the highest standard and quality and the ILM stamp is just further proof of that!
