Boost your Forces L&D with a Managed Training Service

Premier Partnership invited police forces from across the UK to a roundtable event to discuss the successes of their eight-year ‘Managed Training Service’ partnership with the Metropolitan Police.

Police forces can greatly benefit from a managed training service as this can provide a range of benefits, including increased efficiency, reduced costs, and improved performance. 

With a saving of over £480,000 last year alone at the Metropolitan Police, Senior Learning and Development Professional Advisor, David Maguire was delighted with the committed service his training team have received over the duration of the contract, and how the agility and professionalism of Premier Partnership has been a bonus in the day-to-day management of training and development within the force. 

“Prior to working with Premier Partnership, we had a sprawling metropolis where we had hundreds of people who were operating independently of each other all looking, quite often, at the same learning and development solution.” 

“Quite often there was very little work done around needs analysis and there were issues around the integrity of some of our processes.” 

He continued, “One thing that has been particularly welcomed with Premier Partnership is that rather than taking the request that comes through, we would be engaged to ensure there is the quality in the outcome. This helps with our auditing with MOPAC as Premier are working with us to clarify the need.” 

From a commercial point of view, Hannah Lloyd, Commercial Lead for Professional Services agreed with David’s comments, “Working with Premier is a compliant route to market which massively reduces the paperwork for us.” 

“The management information helps a lot to track our spending so we can manage our budgets as previously there was no way to track and things have got much better since we worked with a managed training service.” 

A managed training service offers flexibility, which is essential for police forces operating in diverse environments. Training programmes can be tailored to meet the unique requirements of different departments and can be adapted as needed, to keep pace with changing trends and emerging threats. 

Premier Partnership can offer you all types of learning and development through a Managed Training Service to help you maximise your budget and reduce overall costs.
