Profile Development & Training

Profile Development & Training is a work-based training provider founded in 2008 that specialises in delivering high-quality apprenticeship and adult education programmes. Their apprenticeship provision is focused on employers and employees across the South East of England, with 100% of apprenticeship delivery taking place in the workplace, enabling bespoke programmes tailored to the needs of both the learner and the organisation. They offer apprenticeships aligned to specific job roles and apprenticeship standards, including requirements for English and maths where needed, and structure programmes to include both practical on-the-job learning and off-the-job training time. Apprentices typically meet their tutor around every four weeks, with additional support via email and phone, and are given dedicated hours in their paid working week to work on portfolio tasks and skills development. Profile also delivers adult education through a national e‑learning programme. The organisation emphasises maintaining high success rates above national averages, keeping staff professionally current, and providing information, advice and guidance, supported by accreditation such as the Matrix standard and a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. Their programmes are individually designed, with apprenticeship durations typically ranging from around 13 to 24 months depending on the standard, role and prior learning.
