With diverse ways to study, from one day courses to larger professional training, and flexible distance learning packages delivered entirely online, we have something to suit both your employees’ interests and availability to study.

Whether you want us to deliver an induction programme for new staff or to upskill a particular group of employees in a range of subjects, our friendly staff will help to develop a combination of training to your exact specifications. In most cases, programmes of study can be delivered face to face at Sparsholt or Andover College, at the employer’s premises or via MS Teams. We are happy to discuss the options.

Our Sparsholt Journey
SEETEC PLUSS is one of the UK’s leading providers of employability and health services, supporting thousands of people to move into employment each year. We support individuals from all walks of life to enter and progress in the world of work.
Sparsholt Business has been invaluable in providing training to our clients on the Pioneer Programme who face health and disability barriers to work, whether that be in helping them to find jobs (such as during CV Writing and Interview Skills course) or to give employability and soft skills for when they have secured work (such as during the First Steps in IT, Time and Priority Management and Communication in the Workplace courses).
The trainers are experts in their subjects and have taken the time to understand the barriers each individual faces. They have also helped the delegates learn from each other’s experiences and to build their confidence.

27 Sep-22 May
I thought the course was genuinely interesting, with just the right balance of classroom learning, controlled environment learning and practical, hands-on experience, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and try different scenarios that we may come across in the field.
