Developing professional skills of your team

1. Why In-House/On-Site Training

In-House/On-site training can be value for money and an effective way to develop the skills of your employees. Whether you are a small group or an entire division we can offer you an effective training tailored to your needs, at a time suited to you and of course at your offices or at a venue of your choice.

2. UNICOM's Approach to In-House/On-Site Training

We provide pre-course consultation to our clients. We undertake a training requirement analysis to assist them in designing and developing their training programme.

All our training courses are designed to provide our clients with practical and professional skills, which can be applied immediately to their jobs. Teaching methods consist of case studies, real life examples role-plays, and exercises.

After the provision of the course the tutors are available to assist the delegates overcome their everyday problems based on the training they received.

UNICOM has also helped organisations to develop the skills of their staff in Belgium, Portugal, Greece, and India.

"The training was very useful. It exposed me to several new concepts (some quite revolutionary) that would help me to rethink and refocus my attention to the way we do business" Secure Meters, India

"The course really hit the spot as far as my interests were concerned" Interamerican, Greece

"Excellent trainers engaged and involved everyone" Boeing, Belgium

"It was more than I expected" Enabler, Portugal

3. The Faculty

Our presenters are practitioners and recognised leaders in their profession. All of them have worked with us for 5 to 10 years on average. Their background and proven teaching ability translated into courses offers an unparalleled standard of training.

"The knowledge and examples from the lecturer's practical experience combined with his presentation style and humour made this an excellent course."

4. The Course Portfolio

UNICOM has a portfolio of over 30 training courses covering a wide range of topic areas. These include Programme and Project Management; Performance Measurement and Management; IT Service Management; project support office (PPSO); managing successful programmes (MSP); IT Security; change and configuration management; Software Process Improvement (CMMI®, Six Sigma); Software Testing and Development; Knowledge Management; Financial Modelling to mention a few.

In addition UNICOM includes in its course portfolio all the BCS accredited ISEB Courses in Project Management, IT Service Management, Software Testing, IT Security and APMG accredited PRINCE2™ foundation and Practitioner in Programme and Project Management.

5. Flexible Venue Option

You can choose to hold the course in the comfort of your own office. Or, should you wish your staff to be away from distractions of the office, we can hold your course in a central city hotel within the UK or any place in Europe. Alternatively we can provide total immersion for your staff, and hold your on-site course residentially at the UNICOM Training Centre in Uxbridge, providing executive accommodation. We will provide you with an on-site course assistant.

6. Matching Your Requirement

Once we are asked to provide an on-site training course we engage our clients in a detailed assessment of "training requirement analysis" and in an interactive feedback phase. We consider the specific requirements and in partnership with our trainers we provide the training material/documentation, which is specially customised to address the client's needs.

A typical example of the level of customisation of the courses offered is the development of a 100% bespoke course for Lloyds TSB entitled "Testing in a .Net Environment". This is some feedback from the participants in this course:

"We all thought the seminar was superb. It was pitched at exactly the right level for what we wanted and it was nice to know we were possibly the first people to attend such a seminar" (Lloyds TSB).

7. Our Clients

UNICOM's clients include 90% of the FTSE 100 Companies. Some of the companies that UNICOM has provided training to, include Brittanic Assurance; English Nature; GlaxosmithKline; HSBC; Lloyds TSB; Logica Services; Ministry of Defence; Southern Water; ait; Department for Constitutional Affairs; Lockheed Martin; Watson Wyatt; Law Society; Tamworth County Council.
