Updates from Realise

Realise is the UK’s No 1 training provider

At this years FE Week and AELP AAC Apprenticeship Awards, we were thrilled to be crowned as Apprenticeship Provider of the Year.

Gregg Scott was delighted with the honour and dedicated the award to the entire Realise team.

He said: “It was an incredible night and to be crowned Apprenticeship Provider of the Year is a huge achievement for everyone associated with Realise.

“To support over 7,000 learners and many hundreds of employers right across the country is not something which happens without a huge amount of hard work and commitment and the Realise team has displayed that in abundance.

“The success is also testament to the flexibility shown by the entire team in dealing with unique challenges posed by the pandemic and transitioning to remote learning virtually overnight.

“We’d never faced a scenario like that before and hopefully never will again, but the way everyone at Realise adjusted both personally and professionally helped us maintain our high standards and level of delivery to our learners.”
