West Berkshire Training Consortium awards local business with Certificate of Excellence

West Berkshire Training Consortium recently presented Covéa Insurance with their prestigious award, the Certificate of Excellence. This certificate recognises employers who are committed to staff training and development and is the highest accolade that an employer can receive in the Investment in Training Awards.

Matt Garvey Managing Director at West Berkshire Training Consortium commented:

“Well done to Covéa Insurance, one of the select few companies to have achieved our highest accolade. It is not easy to become a recipient of the Certificate of Excellence, but this is well deserved”.
