The Theo Paphitis Retail Group are so convinced about the quality of our services that they are offering training and Apprenticeships at all 357 of their UK stores. 
 
'Fareport Training have an excellent reputation for delivering tailored training and Apprenticeships that will make a real difference to our future success'. 
 
Theo Paphitis, Entrepreneur and Chairman, Theo Paphitis Retail Group Ltd 
 
Theo Paphitis with Robert Dyas employees
Fareport work very closely with Laura Keane, Group HR Director, and Sandra Dearling, Group Head of Learning and Development to ensure all Apprenticeship training programmes are designed and tailored to their needs while meeting national standards. In partnership we ensure that all company training programmes are mapped against the Apprenticeship standards. Those colleagues who are not eligible for an Apprenticeship are offered a full in house programme by the business thus ensuring that everyone is developed in line with the operating requirements of their store. 
 
The Group believe that apprenticeships are an investment in their colleagues that will ultimately improve retention, progression, upskilling and productivity within the business. 
 
In a recent Quality Assurance survey, Laura described Fareport's assessors as 'second to none'. The business values the assessment and external scrutiny afforded to the Group from using a high quality independant training provider rather than just offering the training in house. The Group noted that doing all training and assessment in house would be akin 'to marking your own homework'. 
 
The team at TPRG meet with Fareport monthly to review the progress of all their learners and to discuss upcoming recruitment to the Apprenticeship programme. The partnership between Fareport and TPRG means that there is full integration between the Apprenticeship programme and all aspects of internal training, thus ensuring a highly effective approach and value for money.
