The Impact of PMO Training on Workforce Development: A Success Story at SAFT Limited

SAFT Limited have recently completed an extensive Performing Manufacturing Operations (PMO) training program with UTraining in partnership with South Tyneside Works that demonstrated how workforce training can foster growth and enhance employee skills. Over 14 weeks, employees participated in interactive sessions aimed at boosting their competencies.

As a business

understand the importance in continuing development of a

skilled workforce, recognising competencies, and the benefit of increased

productivity, combined with boosted employee morale and motivation.

Feedback from employees highlighted the program's structure, content, and delivery. The active participation and eagerness to learn indicated a strong desire for growth and professional development among the workforce.

Efficient Enrolment and Minimal Disruption

One of the key highlights of the PMO training initiative was its efficient enrolment process. By streamlining registration, employees quickly found their places in training without disrupting daily production. This thoughtful organisation not only saved time but showed SAFT Limited’s commitment to balancing employee education with operational needs.

Celebration of Achievements

As a result of the training, 63 individuals successfully completed the PMO NVQ Level 2 qualification. This achievement reflects not only their hard work but also the program's quality. With formal qualifications in hand, employees reported a boost in confidence and competence in their roles, which is crucial for a positive work atmosphere.

Recognising skills through external qualifications not only uplifts individuals but also enhances the overall productivity of the company. Employees felt more empowered and engaged at work, and this enthusiasm contributed to a more vibrant organisational culture.

Praise for Tutors and Assessors

The success of the PMO training can also be attributed to the outstanding tutors and assessors. Participants frequently praised Darren and his team for their engaging teaching methods and industry experience. Their approach made learning both informative and enjoyable.

The bond built between tutors and trainees created a supportive environment. Research shows that effective teaching is as much about engagement as it is about content. In this program, that balance was achieved perfectly, making learning a collaborative and enriching experience for all involved.

"Overall, a highly recommended service."
