“It is a great achievement to reach 20 years of business in the UK and a significant milestone for the firm as we continue to invest and strengthen our services to offer first class training in the area,” said Colin Leyden, managing director, UK.

The company globally delivers over 200 safety and survival training courses to more than 340,000 people each year, and offers various training services including offshore survival, fire, technical, maritime and renewables.

“For 20 years we have been committed to providing quality training that will safeguard offshore energy and shipping workers and prepare them for all eventualities of the offshore environment. We continually go the extra mile with additional exercises to deliver as realistic training as possible,” Mr Leyden added.

With a focus on its 20-year achievement, the safety training experts are looking to the future and extending its reach into sectors where value can be added.
