Allied Vehicles Group is committed to providing ongoing learning and development opportunities for all our staff. This enables us to address the needs of the organisation, in a competitive and changing business environment; to support the growth of individual employees; and to meet the needs and expectations of our customers.

Induction

From the outset, all new employees benefit from an induction programme. This covers essential information about the business, including company goals, structure and health and safety requirements. Our induction programme also features customer service information for all employees, reflecting our commitment to always place the customer at the heart of all that we do.

Personal Development

Once in post, we seek to provide trade and professional pathways which enable individuals to progress their skills, role and responsibilities within the business.

Whether it’s crafting personal development plans or identifying specific training requirements, our in-house check-in process allows employees and managers to track their own and their team’s learning and development needs electronically. This in turn means the company is able to respond quickly and effectively to any training requirements and ensures that solutions can be tailored to the specific needs of the individual, the business and our customers.

Certified Training

We also work with external partners to support a number of certified training programmes. These include:
