Starting its training activities in 1991 Cymru Care Training rapidly grew from its initial purpose of providing NVQ training to a small group of residential and nursing homes in the area into one where training is being delivered into approximately thirty five homes spread across Wales. With offices situated in Carmarthenshire, the area served by Cymru Care Training is large and diverse, covering
Swansea, Port Talbot, Llanelli, Burry Port, Carmarthen, Pembrokeshire, Llandeilo and Llandovery, Llandysul, Cardigan and Aberystwyth. Our team of highly experienced nurses, managers, tutors & assessors continue to offer training and development in Health Care and Health & Social Care for learners at all levels of ability which meets the constantly changing demands of all the Health Care organisations and are approved by the awarding bodies of City & Guilds and OCR. Cymru Care Training recognises that the current economic environment represents a real challenge for the future. The ability to recruit and retain competent staff in care establishments continues to rely heavily upon training which is able to meet the needs of both learners and employers. Training which fully develops all staff to their full potential using flexible and sustained learning methods and approaches is and continues to be vital. Cymru Care Training Ltd is able and well prepared to meet the new challenges of the future and are committed and dedicated to ensuring that the best possible achievements for every member of care staff remain our priority. From 1 August 2011 we are pleased to announce that we will be providing work based learning as part of a newly formed Consortium – Skills Academy Wales (South West). We will continue to retain our independence but will work in collaboration with other companies in the group over the coming years to deliver high standards of training in Wales. We believe that working as a Consortium will bring significant benefits through joint planning and sharing information and best practices.
