The courses are motivating, confidence building and work well for team retention. I highly recommend and would be happy to speak to any business considering this in the future.

MHL Hotel Collection

Sinead McGlennon – Group Training and Development Officer

The MHL Hotel Collection has been availing of courses under the Skills to Advance Initiative for almost 3 years.  Staff from over 8 of our hotels have participated on all of the Supervisory Skills courses over this period. STA programs offered the MHL group an opportunity to train and retain staff.
I cannot praise more highly the team at DDLETB and learning experiences they provide. Our team members at MHL Hotel Collection found the courses to be engaging, insightful and tailored perfectly both to the subject and audience needs. The tutors connect and inspire their learners both in the classroom and through the hybrid model of online sessions, a skill they should be extremely proud of.
On behalf of MHL Hotel Collection, I look forward to many more years of fruitful partnership as we develop our hospitality leaders of the future.

Health Services Supervisory Management

I would like to thank you graciously for your support throughout the past two years. It has been a challenging 2 years with the pandemic and other personal adaptations. I am very thankful for the knowledge I have gained throughout this course, particularly knowledge gained throughout the conflict management, human resource management, supervisory management and team conflict modules as these are areas which I won’t cover in as much depth in my current course, and I know will stand to me throughout my career.  I have … started my Masters in Occupational Therapy and am very grateful for the introduction this course has given me into these areas. … Thank you very much [tutor] and I wish you all the best in the future.

Studying for the HR major award through DDLETB is the perfect solution for any busy professional looking to develop their business skills and accelerate their career. There is much more to the program than what I initially expected. It has been much more than an educational experience. It has given me phenomenal leadership training, and helped me with my personal growth and professional development. I think the entire program is well-designed and adds tremendous value to my long-term career aspirations.
