Through the Outsourced Training Manager service CMS provide organisations with their own dedicated Training Manager. It is particularly suitable for organisations who are too small, or lack the resources, to employ their own dedicated personnel.

CMS provides a professional and appropriately qualified expert to manage the organisation’s training and development needs and processes, alleviating the burden that is often placed on busy managers.

This system takes the form of an annually renewable contract where CMS manages the training that an organisation needs. The service is tailored to the needs of individual organisations, reflecting size and complexity; fees are determined by the agreed package of activities.

A professional and appropriately qualified expert is appointed to manage training and development needs on the organisation’s behalf. The remit is to:

• Get to know the organisation, understanding strategic and operational plans and resources
• Conduct an organisational level review of learning and development needs
• Prepare managers to analyse team and individual learning and development needs
• Produce organisational and team level training and development plans
• Advise about external training providers
• Carry out ongoing evaluation of the organisation’s investment in learning and development
