Empowering Local Businesses with Leadership Thinking
Herefordshire & Worcestershire Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Make Strides, a digital-first learning and development company specialising in both early-career and leadership programmes. Drawing on their expertise, this partnership will deliver digital training to equip businesses across the region with the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital economy.
This new partnership responds directly to challenges faced by many small and medium-sized enterprises, including tight budgets, time constraints, and changing skills requirements. Our aim is to combat these challenges by working with Make Strides to deliver flexible, bite-sized online training that fits around work schedules. Initial training topics will cover:
-
Early Career Development (ideal for young professionals entering the workplace)
-
Leadership Capabilities (for rising managers and experienced leaders)
-
Group Coaching
What our clients say:
“Partnering with Make Strides allows us to bring thought leading, flexible, and outcome-driven digital training to local businesses. It aligns perfectly with our mission to support skills development and close the digital divide.”
“We understand that many of our clients, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, face significant barriers when it comes to training. Whether that’s time, cost, or access to relevant resources, this partnership directly tackles those challenges by offering accessible and flexible learning solutions that fit around the realities of working life.”
“Whether it’s upskilling young people just starting out in their careers or helping existing staff and leaders build their confidence, Make Strides brings the right blend of experience, innovation, and delivery. Together, we’re supporting sustainable business growth and long-term talent development across the region.”
“We are proud to add this new delivery format to our existing schedule of face to face training, where many of our clients still enjoy coming together in person for training, alongside the best practice sharing and engagement with each other that this brings. Nonetheless, in a changing consumer marketplace, a digital first option enables us to be flexible to all our customers and their varied needs, so we are delighted to now be able to offer different options for all.”
