CASE STUDIES

Since 2005, we have built a close working relationship with McIntosh Donald on a few different projects. These include the Modern Apprenticeship programme, food hygiene courses, train the trainer courses and internal auditor training.

Working together since 2012, we continue to deliver a modern apprenticeship programme to their employees at Level 2 and 3, and have successfully delivered a leadership development programme for their team leaders, covering all areas of the business. In the pipeline, line leaders at Macsween will also complete the leadership development programme, and we look forward to delivering an in-house train the trainer course and continuing with the Modern Apprenticeships.

As part of the continuous training and development within the plant at Farne Salmon & Trout Ltd, over 80 members of staff have now completed their Modern Apprenticeship Level 2 qualification, with a number of employees in the process of completing their Level 3 qualification. The programme has included a variety of pathways such as Fish and Shellfish Processing Skills, Distribution Skills, Operational Skills and Production & Processing Skills.
