ITEC SKILLS AND EMPLOYMENT

About Us

Who We Are

Itec has been a leading provider of work-based learning programmes for over 40 years.

As part of the ongoing strategy to place our people at the centre of the business and preserve the company as an independent organisation, Itec Training Solutions Holdings Limited became an employee-owned company in February 2019. We are proud to be the first Welsh independent training provider to become employee-owned, with 100% of the business now owned by our employee-owners.

Itec is one of the largest and most vocationally diverse work-based learning providers. We hold Welsh Government contracts to deliver Apprenticeships and Jobs Growth Wales Plus (JGW+). In England we hold ESFA contracts to deliver Apprenticeships.

We acquired The Centre for Strategy and Communication in 2014 to support the strategic goal to diversify the business, offering commercial training to individuals and employers throughout the UK and worldwide. In 2021, we merged our companies (Itec Training Solutions Limited and The Centre for Strategy and Communication), to enable the business to align and strengthen our brand.

Mission Statement

We help individuals start and progress their careers by matching their skills with those of local employers. We ensure our programmes are meaningful, effective, valued, and sustainable to both individuals and employers.

“When I was 16, I also took part in a similar programme, so I know firsthand the benefits of trying different industries to see which suits you the most. I think the JGW+ is a great option for learners who are unsure of what path to take. It enables people to identify their strengths for job satisfaction.”

“We have been with Itec for a few months and are proud that we can help young adults get good work experience, we are always looking for more members to join our team.”

“I am amazed at how much my apprentices have grown in confidence in just 3 months. Watching them develop their interpersonal, communication and influencing skills has been a pleasure and I would highly recommend an apprenticeship in customer service.”

Leighton Channing, EE

“My time at Itec opened my eyes to the possibility of shaping my future and excelling at it. School used to be a daunting place for me until I gained insight into the perspective of teachers. I now understand how I wished to be taught, and I’m eager to leverage my journey to assist others like me and adapt to their unique learning needs.”

Jack Stevens (JGW+)

“Joining Itec gave me the opportunity to discover my career options. I was able to gain qualifications and work experience that has given me a positive outlook of my future and has helped my confidence grow. I have also made new friends that I will stay in contact with for life.” 

Chloe Westgarth (JGW+)

“Since I started the course the support from my tutors has been amazing. They offer one to one training and great encouragement every step of the way.”
