Top 3 Questions from Managers Considering Staff Certifications

As a manager of any kind of business, you’ll want the best for your company and for your staff. The better trained your staff are, the more you can come to expect from them and, in turn, the happier they will be knowing they are achieving things in their day-to-day work.

When it comes to the consideration of staff certification, most managers have a lot of questions. Any sensible manager will want to do some research before taking up training sessions and qualifications for staff. In this article we tackle the three main questions which come up for the savvy manager.

How much is it going to cost?

This first question is a difficult one to tackle in any precise way as it depends on what you want to achieve by getting your staff certified in different areas. It’s hard to put a price on something when you don’t know what it is you want; much like anything in business you should set goals and targets for what you want.

One cost which you need to factor into your plans is whether there is a cost benefit to sponsoring your staff to take qualifications against hiring someone externally to come to you to provide the training.

How much time does it take?

When it comes to business everyone knows that time wasted is money lost. That’s why at Euro 1 Training we can provide certification either at our specially equipped premises or at your own premises. A training package designed around your schedule will help to minimise disruption to your business and allows your staff to be trained in a manner which suits your needs.

You need to remember that gaining certification is no walk in the park – it takes dedication and rigor to complete every module. With that in mind, you will want to select certain people to take on certification for certain areas. By doing this, you give specialist skills to people who you know are capable and reliable.

How long do the certifications last?

Setting up a certification programme means you want to keep your staff at the peak of their profession, both in terms of operation as well as for safety. The renewal of your certifications is something you need to factor into your costs, as previously mentioned.

At Euro 1 Training we keep all our certification programmes up to date and relevant, making sure they are in line with the latest industry legislation. Our training consists of the most in-demand courses to give you ultimate longevity from the certification your staff receives.
