Learner comes out on top beating 900 candidates

16 Aug 2011

Out of 900 learners in the South East of England studying for a NVQ Certificate/Diploma in Retail Skills Pauline Kew who works at Foxbury Farm Shop at Brize Norton, Oxfordshire has just been presented with The Learner of the Month Award by First 4 Skills, the training body.
 
Mrs Kew is undertaking a work-based training course allowing her to further develop her skills in retail. This vocational qualification provides high class learning while at work and allows the employee to work at their own pace with an assessor visiting every 6 weeks.
 
Mrs Kew’s mentor is Rebecca Dawes of Foxbury Farm Shop who said “We pride ourselves on encouraging all staff of any age to better themselves at work, with training courses both externally and internally, this benefits not only the employee but also our business, Pauline has worked hard during her course and it is a credit to her that she was recognised as the best in the South East with course work above and beyond the course requirement”
