Working together on supported apprenticeships

We have recently expanded our delivery partnership for Supported Apprenticeships across Hampshire and Dorset within the customer service and warehouse operative sectors.
In 2024, with the support of Minstead Trust, Smart Training became the first private business based on the Isle of Wight to be awarded Disability Confident Leader status.
