Gainsborough Bathrooms recently celebrated the success of their employees who achieved their NVQ Level 2 in Polymer Processing and Related Operations. The programme funded by the Learning and Skills Council, was delivered by PTL at Gainsborough’s site in Aldridge.
Chris Wassall, Manufacturing Director, was keen to celebrate these achievements, stating; “the employees involved in the programme have applied themselves and reaped the benefit”

The programme of NVQs delivered by PTL involved assessment by Darren Vater-Hutchison, who spent time with the learners during their normal work activity on the shop floor and time in the classroom delivering the underpinning knowledge. Chris Wassall said; “the Company has appreciated the time spent by all concerned, especially when the challenges and constraints of manufacturing can hinder the NVQ process”

The successful Learners received their certificates from Charmaine Bowers, Operations Manager PTL, and Gainsborough’s MD Gordon Farmiloe presented a gift to all the achievers.
Charmaine Bowers said; “the learners should feel justifiably proud of their achievements; they have gained a nationally acknowledge qualification which is equivalent to 5 GCSEs at grade C, and Gainsborough have employees whose skills have been recognised and developed”.
