AVPT is the only UK
Globally Accredited online,
workshop and home study
based provider of over 390
Soft Skills courses which
arereadytogo,customisable
and can be corporately
branded. We are proud
to introduce our cutting
edge, proprietary online
Learning Management
system and pre Personal
Training Needs Analysis
system.
It takes an awful lot of
time and effort to create a
training course; Designing,
researching, writing, and
appropriately presenting it.
Especially difficult though,
even more so is the time
taken to create an on-line
learning system to work
fluently and securely with
various technologies. We
know this because we
have done just this.
What most people,
employers, entrepreneurs
and even some education-
al institutions do not have
in today’s current environ-
ment is time the neces-
sary resources and the
infrastructure they need to
support and achieve their
learning objectives. Both
our online and workshop
based courses are a cost
effective way to deliver
and up-skill a wide cross
section of our society. De-
signed to be student (user)
centric and time sensitive.
We believe that online
courses can save time, are
easily scalable, reduced
acquisition costs per per-
son, measurable, provide
a flexible virtual support
system, less paper/ink (en-
vironmentally green!) and
are generally less stressful
owing to their user led flex-
ibility!
1. We understand your sector inside out - that is why our main
focus is placed upon providing the highest quality training of
your staff, in the shortest possible time and to ensure that
every person who trains with us goes out more effective than

3. We Can help you with both compliance and accreditation
issues.

time scales to suit individual learning needs.
7. Each of your staff gets allocated a personal tutor to help
them complete their online course.
8. Mobile phone and tablet compliant and secure with no
advertising to suck up bandwidth.
How we do it
Academy of Virtual and Professional Training

5. 9. We have immediate availability at the very
last minute for a large number of effective
tailored one day courses including social
media marketing, building self esteem,
information management, writing reports
and proposals, minute taking, business

and much more!
10. We are CPD accredited by the Solicitors
Regulatory Authority so we understand the
challenges facing legal firms and what they
need.
11. We are IAO accredited so certificates are
recognised around the world.
Over 70% of people now access information
using a mobile device. We can deliver up
to date courses via any compliant mobile
device that has broadband and internet
access anywhere in the world.
Teaching using 21st Century pedagogy,
AVPT educators must be student centric
and for that reason all of our virtual teacher
and workshop facilitators have been highly
trained to create the most comprehensive
training experience for individuals within
our broader society. Effectively covering
everyone’s individual learning style! Our
courses will not only train them in soft skill
but also help them to become technology
fluent.

6. //JOBS OF THE
FUTURE
The traditional belief that we
must prepare ourselves to be
‘employable’ is under threat.
The counter argument
encourages us to ‘gear up’ for
earning our own money, rather
thanseeingincomeassomeone
else’s responsibility.With the
population dramatically ageing
and low-level jobs increasingly
swallowed up by machinery
, entrepreneurship will be a
necessity for many, rather than
a life-style choice for some.
I launched AVPT because I
believe that soft skill training
can help any person feed once
they can prove that they have
those skills necessary to earn
a living, get promoted, get a job
or start a business.
Smes are of course already
leading this charge but
although you recognise the
impact skilled staff make to
your bottom line , a lot of
the unemployed who could
help them grow their business
need soft skills training so they
can add value to the small busi-
nesses bottom line.

7. INDIVIDUAL APPROACH
Techniques that blend with an individual’s learning style
don’t stop there. Using Google translate, AVPT Courses
are suitable where English is not the first language.Visually
impaired employees can use assisted technology to access
course content and all 450 courses (with the exception of
it) are available as face-to-face workshops or online. Some
companies prefer staff to be trained collectively and person,
but if the whole team needs to qualify quickly, scalable online
works best.“Regardless of anyone’s challenges, We have
crossed borders,” continues shawe .“Education is too focused
on the institution, not the student. Real training will help them
get a job, be promoted or start a business.”
BREAK IT DOWN
Bite-sized chunks lead the way. Instead of a three-
year course, or long winded evening classes, enrol
at any time and carve the learning into foundation,
intermediate, advance and expert stages that
mirror progress through your role to make training
more manageable alongside work and life and aid
the study itself. “We know people learn best when
they are motivated by the prospect of it ,”
SPEEDY SUCCESS
The fact that most people struggle to absorb
information for more than 20 minutes, coupled with
the micro app and social media way we consume
information now, has created a real case for the
short, sharp hit. All our online courses are for a
maximum of 4 weeks or you can learn on in a fast
track workshop environment.
New-wave training is undestandably keen to make
the understandably keen to make the most of
digital technology. For instance “We can update
content in real time and quickly generate new
courses in response to legislative changes. We
had one student that logged on 539 times in 21
days to complete a four week course! With mobile
technology she could dip in and out during her
working day and at home!”
For smes there’s no longer a worry of sabbaticals
or disruption. Skills develop gradually and
inclusively, alongside roles, making it the ideal way
for business owners, as well as their staff, to upskill.

9. REWARDING QUALITY
Amazingly those vital ‘soft’ skills for vocational
and professional training had never been qualified
until I questioned and and subsequently achieved
global accreditation in 2012 from the international
accreditation organisation in the us. “It’s critical to
know that standards have been evaluated and that
your certificate is recognised around the world. We
have achieved other recognisable accreditations
since
END TO END SUPPORT
By cantrast, AVPT courses are exceptional ways of
learning. Students complete a structured manual
to keep when they attend any of our workshop
courses. Online students don’t lose out either
because trained facilitators support students
throughout, so they never feel isolated.They are
allocated their own personal virtual online tutor to
help guide them throughout their course over the
4 weeks. They work steadily, learning by doing –
perhaps an assignment or producing graphs - to
avoid information overload. They are tested before
and after to measure progress and complete an
action plan outlining integration of the new skills
into daily life.Their accredited certificate is proof of
quality learning.

Structure for the Silverpreneurs
Turning 50 isn’t the end of a business career
– it’s the beginning. And an ever-growing
wave of ‘olderpreneurs’, starting a business
have 70% chance of surviving their first five
years compared with only a 28% survival
rate for those younger than them.
Nearly half the self-employment population is
over 50, and one in six new businesses started
in the UK are set up by post-half-centuri-
ons.
Evidence also shows that this growing
group is serious about short relevant
structured courses.

12. //Set up your own Personal
Development Training Academy
Up to £430 million is spent on personal
development products every year. The
net worth of this industry is estimated to
be almost £9 billion.
This market is also beating global economic
trends as it is averaging over 5% growth
each year.
The growth of the Personal Development
sector is essential for confidence and
success.
In today’s society, many people experience
information overload.
Women utilise the personal development
industry much more than men do.
Over 13 million books that focused on
personal development were sold in 2007.

Hospitality Training Academy
Emerging markets in countries like
Brazil, China, India, and Russia mean
n e w h o t e l s , c a s i n o s , r e s o r t s , a n d
upscale restaurants are looking for staff
who not only have the skills necessary
to manage or operate these businesses,
but also speak fluent English.
Today, social media has entered the
business environment, with sites such
as TripAdvisor playing a significant part
in customer.
I n a d d i t i o n t h e d e v e l o p m e n t o f
computerised hospitality have led to
the need for n e w s k i l l s , e v e n t a n d
conference p l a n n e r s t o h e l p t h e i r
customers plan everything from weddings
to family reunions to business meetings.
All these developments have significant
impact on the human resourcing of
businesses. ‘churning’ of properties
means that lifelong careers, are harder
to encounter, being replaced by ‘portfolio’
careers and even portfolio jobs.

14. //Set up your own Leadership &
Management Training Academy
The current speed of change means that
employees need to be trained continuously
in order for Companies to avoid the dangers
of being out-thought and out-maneuvered
by competitors.
These training initiatives (incorporating
individual and group training activities)
need to be monitored and managed via a
consistent and reliable tracking system
that can be stored, consulted and analysed
as required.
All organisation’s should be able to
“undertake competently” core activities
such as ethical behaviours, technical
skills (drafting, negotiating, researching),
management of work (planning, prioritising,
record keeping) and working communicating
with other people. But the most important
thing is establishing that competence
has been reached by an independent
Academy that can be trusted.

15. //Set up your own
Care to Skills Training Academy
A Snapshot of the UK…the number of
people in England aged 85 or over will
increase from 1.46 million today to 2.72
million by 2030 While the number of
people receiving publicly funded care
has fallen since 2008, it is likely that
demand for adult social care will rise in
the coming decades, as the number of
older people, and particularly the oldest
old increases. This is the case in many
developed countries.
Training and Qualification
There is however significant variation
across different job roles – 15.5% of
those in management or supervisory
roles have no qualifications by comparison to
37.6% of direct care staff. That equates
to roughly two in every five carers who
interact with patients on a daily basis
having no relevant qualifications. Such
is the demand.
