Gaining ‘outstanding’ in Personal Development demonstrates our commitment to our learners outside of the classroom further equipping our learners with the knowledge and skills to further their careers and be outstanding citizens.

Inspectors stated EMA’s staff build positive and productive relationships with apprentices. Trainers provide high-quality support with time management and professional communication so that apprentices integrate successfully into their new workplaces. They grow in confidence to quickly become active team members. Apprentices communicate well with external customers and confidently deliver presentations in high-pressure situations.

Tracey praised staff for their exceptional service and said: “I am extremely fortunate to have an amazing, talented and committed team who genuinely care about the success of our students/learners and EMA Training. This recognition is greatly deserved by all”.

The inspection team was assisted by the chief executive, as nominee. Inspectors took account of the provider’s most recent self-assessment report and development plans, and the previous inspection report. The inspection was carried out using the further education and skills inspection handbook and took into account all relevant provision at the provider. Inspectors collected a wide range of evidence to inform judgements, including visiting learning sessions, scrutinising learners’ work, seeking the views of learners, staff and other stakeholders, and examining the provider’s documentation and records.
