About Us
A life in training; my professional experience
Peter Clift - the 'Me' in Meritem...
After many years accruing skills and experience in teaching, training and development, I bring you Meritem. Meritem is the realisation of my work developing and delivering training programmes at both a national and international level, including USA, South Africa and Europe. I am also a qualified CIPD Coach Mentor.
My particular expertise is in helping people realise their full potential. From teaching, to National Training Manager for Snap-on, there is something in my portfolio that your company can use to get the most from its principal asset – its employees
Training – growing your reputation
Most companies recognise that the cost of recruitment means that it makes business sense to build expertise from within their company; and the best way to do this is through training. This is no secret; here, the winners of the 2005 Chamber Award for Skills and Workforce Development, sponsored by the Learning and Skills Council, share some of the secrets of their success.
- Think long term. Developing a long term training strategy for your staff will encourage a feeling of job ownership and of being valued.
- Develop clear training programmes. Put visible bespoke development and training progression routes in place for your employees.
Additionally, they advise clued-up employers to ‘look in-house for trainers. Consider using successful employees as trainers to the next generation by giving them coaching to be effective trainers and presenters’.* With a wealth of experience in taking training to the workforce – and as an employee turned trainer myself – I can create the expertise you need within your own company.
In setting up Meritem, we are looking to give our experience of bringing the best out of people a wider remit, and there is plenty that we can do for you. So consider your training needs – or let Meritem help you.
