TowerSkills is an innovative and enterprising learning provider based in the heart of London.
We support organisations to reach their potential by offering tailored solutions. We encourage businesses to respond to changing markets by investing in their staff and to be able to meet successfully the demands of a globalised economy.
At the centre of any business is the core management, sales and administration team. This may be just a few staff for a small organisation or cover a number of departments in a larger organisation. This team includes leaders and people-managers for whom our ILM programmes have already made a difference.
From September 2014 we are offering programmes for finance, administration, IT, sales and marketing teams and individuals to augment the management and HR training that is already available. In order to provide good continuing professional development opportunities, we have added internationally recognised accountancy and
finance qualifications, IT user and IT professional qualifications to our offer. We have also added new short programmes in these areas, including Finance for Non-Financial Managers and HR for Non-HR Managers.
Whatever your business, we can help your core team improve their performance with the right accredited or non-accredited programmes.
We have demonstrated real return on investment for our clients and an increase in customer satisfaction. TowerSkills employs industry experts who are able to design and develop bespoke solutions that reflect the values and objectives of our clients.
We strongly believe in the importance of evaluating learning and development because effective evaluation forms part of any accountable and professional organisation. It is fundamental to good governance, good practice and good management.

Examples of Experience
Essentia Management Development Academy (EMDA) Guy’s and St
Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust:
“I was able to apply what I have learned from the coaching and appraisal
training. I trained a new member of staff recently and she found my
style very helpful. I used the effective questioning and active listening
coaching style.
The academy has met my expectations in many ways and I am more
confident in doing my job.”
Norland Management Services:
“To say the least, this was the single most life-changing training I have
ever attended.”
“It has given me a fantastic support network of peers, diverse skills and
techniques to deliver my role. The course enabled me to build confidence
with competence.”
