Chamber Business Training Highly Recommended

Commenting on Chamber Business Training, David Mellor, Company Customer Service & Training Manager Total Food Services said:I have been working with East Lancashire Chamber of Commerce for the past eighteen months on a number of training programmes to meet our company’s needs.

East Lancashire Chamber of Commerce provides a multitude of training programmes to fit the needs of the business with a willingness to provide bespoke training or adapt current training programmes to meet the specific training requirements for the business.

I have found the professionalism has been outstanding and the willingness to assist in developing the training programmes and assisting sourcing funding where applicable an asset.

The Chamber of Commerce provides well designed modern and comfortable training premises with class and conference rooms that meet the needs of the business. The facility is located within very easy and close access to key motorway networks and with ample free visitor parking there are no issues for people attending courses.

I can say that it is rare to come across such a focused and dedicated training provider who goes that extra mile to meet your needs.

I can confidently recommend the East Lancashire Chamber of Commerce as a training provider.”
