An apprenticeship is the start of a career, not just a qualification. The question is whether you turn it into long-term advantage.

This session helps you articulate the value of your apprenticeship, build a professional identity that opens doors, and map your next 2–5 career moves. Tue 8 & Fri 11 Sept, free.

Lydia entered the procurement sector without a background in the field.

She gained much more than just a qualification. She finally understood exactly where her daily work fit into the bigger picture.

This newfound clarity changed everything. She felt capable of taking on complex tasks she would have previously avoided.

That is the hidden benefit of training that most people never expect.

The technical knowledge is guaranteed. The professional confidence is what truly transforms your career and changes what you say yes to.

Our Level 3 Procurement and Supply Assistant Apprenticeship is built for professionals exactly like Lydia. It provides a solid foundation for people already doing the work but wanting the formal recognition to back it up.

AI assistants and automation tools aren't optional extras any more. Used well they compound your output; ignored, they quietly leave you behind peers getting more done in less time.

This session cuts through the noise: the tools that matter now, simple prompting that saves real hours, and how to learn new tools fast. Wed 9 & Thu 10 Sept, free.

As more technical work gets automated, the differentiators employers promote on are increasingly human — how you communicate, how you handle difficulty, how you bring people with you.

"Leadership Edge" is about building those skills before you have a leadership title. Mon 7 & Thu 10 Sept, free and online.

Ideal for anyone developing their team — or themselves. 👉https://ow.ly/uXGK50Z548E

Are your boardroom resilience strategies disconnected from reality?

Right now, boardrooms are talking about nearshoring, digital twins, and dual sourcing. These are vital conversations, but they operate on a three year timeline.

Meanwhile, your supply chain planners are dealing with immediate chaos.

They are the ones opening a spreadsheet on a Monday morning to find a container delayed by six weeks due to global chokepoints. They are the ones calculating which production run to delay, which customer to call, and whether alternative suppliers are still viable.

They are fixing the plan by lunchtime. Then they do it all again next week.

The industry has invested heavily in technology and long term strategies. But we are missing the most critical element. We have invested in everything except the people making the calls on the ground.

True supply chain resilience does not just come from software. It comes from empowering your procurement and supply chain teams with the right training, confidence, and strategic thinking to navigate daily disruptions.

Are you equipping your planners to handle the chaos?

Most time-management advice is written for people who control their own diary. Busy professionals usually don't.

On Mon 7 & Wed 9 Sept, this free hour covers time management that actually fits a reactive workplace — protecting focus, prioritising the work that moves your goals, and ending the week with something left in the tank.

27 peaks conquered. 187 to go!

Our Director of Education, Greg Jackson, is officially underway with his monumental August challenge!

This month, Greg is attempting to summit all 214 Wainwrights in the Lake District. To put that into perspective, this immense undertaking means covering approximately 320 miles and climbing around 36,000 metres of elevation.

After kicking things off on 1st August, Greg has successfully ticked off 27 peaks. The unpredictable British weather has certainly kept things interesting, throwing everything from severe sunburn to torrential rain at him over the last few days!

But Greg is pushing through these barriers for a cause that is incredibly close to his heart. He is raising vital funds for Dementia UK in honour of his dad, Keith, who is living with dementia, and his mum, who takes on the enormous responsibility of caring for him daily.

Let us show Greg the full support of the SRSCC. Every single donation helps Dementia UK provide specialist support to families who need it most. 💙

You can find the donation link below. Please leave a message of encouragement to help keep Greg moving forward on the fells!
