ELS receives Gold Provider Approval from the EEIAS for Quality of Assessment & Training Provision

Explosive Learning Solutions is thrilled to announce it has been awarded Gold Approved Provider Status from the Energy and Efficiency Independent Assessment Service (EEIAS).

Gold status is an exceptional accolade of an Award and ELS have been commended for their values, clear vision and smart objectives. Highlighted by the EEIAS is ELS’s commitment to providing exceptional training which in turn promotes high quality learning, flexible to the employers and learners needs - ‘Indicative of an organisation with quality at the heart of its provision’ being one of many quotes mentioned.  

The EEIAS has been established in response to Government reforms which place employers at the heart of workforce development. Their aim is to ensure that assessments and qualifications are delivered to the highest of standards and that training is effective and relevant to the jobs market.

The energy and utility sector is growing in the UK. However the demand for trained workers has highlighted a skills gap which as it stands is only set to grow. Over the next ten years £100 billion will be invested into the infrastructure of this sector, creating a rising demand for competent workers. The Energy and Efficiency IAS is employer-led and will become employer owned; it will implement the Quality Framework and facilitate the Affiliate Network.

The aim of the Affiliates Network is to drive forward the quality of provision and assessment within the sector. Affiliation will assist ELS to strengthen existing relationships and open new lines of engagement between providers and employers. ELS are working with employers nationwide to understand the skills shortages of today and tomorrow and to address the training needs required.

Receiving such a respected status from the EEIAS is an amazing achievement and ELS continue to work to ensure high standards of quality and training are at the forefront of everything they do. It is in our DNA.
