Staff skills blossoming at Tulip
Updates | Friday November 16th, 2007Staff at food processing company Tulip are blossoming, thanks to a new training programme. Staff have been given the opportunity to increase their skill levels, and have been funded by the company.
After voluntarily signing a skills pledge, all 2,000 staff from the Bugle, Bodmin and Redruth sites will be trained in food and drink manufacturing to NVQ Level 2 standard.
Christine Powell, Tulip’s divisional human relations manager, said: “We are delighted to be recognised for our commitment to training as we firmly believe in allowing all of our staff the chance to develop their skills and gain qualifications.
“Some of our staff left school without any qualifications and never thought they would gain any in the workplace, but now they are very enthusiastic about their new skills and the training provided.”
Tulip has teamed up with Cornwall College Business and brokerage service Train to Gain, to provide their new training scheme.
