Warwick Conferences is celebrating after once again being awarded the prestigious Investors in People accreditation.

The achievement places them amongst an elite group of employers – just a quarter of firms achieve the standard.

The areas in which Warwick’s collection of conferencing venues was recently found to particularly excel are:

• the apprenticeships programme;
• staff inductions;
• the learning and development programme for staff;
• and the staff Reward and Recognition scheme.

Alan Robinson, Director of Warwick Conferences, comments:

We’re delighted that our efforts continue to be recognised by the Investors in People standard. We believe that it’s our people that really set us apart in the industry, so we’re dedicated to providing a framework of opportunities to progress. The fact that we’ve retained the award provides clear evidence of our investment in training and development initiatives for our people, and shows that we are dedicated to continually improving standards."

Investors in People (IIP) is the UK’s leading business improvement standard, channelling the power of people to transform performance across a whole range of industries. It provides advice and support to organisations nationwide with a view to helping them achieve their goals.

Businesses applying for accreditation are assessed by an independent panel, which not only evaluates existing training and development programmes and other people-related initiatives, but also conducts interviews with staff and management in confidence in order to build a true picture.

Following a two-day assessment, cross sections of staff from the sales department and the Radcliffe, Arden, and Scarman venues at Warwick Conferences were interviewed.
