SPARSHOLT MEANS BUSINESS
Training Calendar Spring/Summer 2022
Welcome Sparsholt Business is very proud to welcome you to our Spring/Summer 2022 Business Training Calendar.
The last two years have been tumultuous for everybody and there have been massive changes in employment practice and society generally. We at Sparsholt Business have tried to keep in step with those changes to meet clients’ training needs and now have a more diverse training offering than ever before. We have always offered face-to-face training and that is still at the core of what we do – however, we now have a large suite of online courses where learners can learn at their own pace, in addition to virtual training where delegates can take part in a live event but without having to leave their home or office.
We have also noticed a trend towards people requiring help with an individual training need and we can now offer a one‑to-one half-day session with a trainer to meet that demand. Whatever your business training needs, we are confident that we can help. If you don’t see exactly what you want in the pages of this calendar, please contact us and we will do our very best to put a bespoke training programme together for you.
You can either phone 0845 850 0916 or email business@sparsholt.ac.uk and one of our friendly team will be happy to discuss your precise training needs with you.

My Sparsholt Journey My name is Darren Filler and I recently completed a City & Guilds L2 Award in Welding Skills at Sparsholt College. What really made Sparsholt stand out was the outstandingly high levels of qualifications that their lecturer had. I feel that if you want to be the best, then learn from the best! The whole welding team were very helpful and well informed. On the first day I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but I was quickly made to feel relaxed when I saw the friendliness of the group. We all worked as a team and it couldn’t have been a better place to learn. When I struggled with the theory side, Davina took as long as was needed to help me through – I have never come across a more knowledgeable, friendly and caring teacher in my life. Because of this, I not only reached every goal, but surpassed it – I actually achieved 100% in the mocks, something I had never done in my life. Thanks to the Sparsholt team I have already secured a job with a bright future where all the skills I learnt are put into practice daily. I can confidently say that my work has massively improved and my welding is not only presentable but of a professional standard. I also know that when one of my pieces of work drives off down the road, the skills I learnt at Sparsholt will keep people safe. That makes me very proud. Darren Filler, City & Guilds Level 2 Welding
