Chellaston

Logistics Learning Alliance are a leading supplier of Logistics/Supply Chain Courses and Qualifications. Subjects covered include Management & Leadership, Supply Chain Management and Logistics Operations including Warehousing, Transportation, Inventory Control, Production Planning and Soft Skills. As one of the UK’s leading training companies in Logistics we offer exceptional levels of training both for individuals and for organisations. Our award winning development programmes are designed to both challenge and develop your Supply Chain and Logistics skills. All of our programmes are offered by online distance learning with face to face courses, or a blended option being available on request. We are also able to create bespoke programmes to meet specific organisational needs. These experiential learning programmes build on a simulated workplace, with strong tutor support to ensure that students have an enjoyable learning experience. Our tutors are all logistics and supply chain professionals, from a range of backgrounds spanning commercial, humanitarian and military sectors. All are driven by one vision – to help students through to successful completion of their programmes. We want you to ask the questions when you need help and guidance. Customer service and support for our students is at the heart of our business. Our Programmes use the innovative ‘competence model’ approach, which emphasizes application of skills, as opposed to the examination of knowledge. At the start of their course, the student is placed into a realistic scenario in which they have to advise on and manage logistics functions. Throughout the programmes, candidates are supported by tutors who are experienced in commercial or humanitarian logistics. The team at LLA also assess candidates’ assignments and determine when they are ready to proceed to the next unit. The European Supply Chain Award for Excellence in Training and Professional Development is awarded for projects that have resulted in improvements to the supply chain via strategic use of training and development programmes. In 2011, the award was won by the partnership of the Fritz Institute, CILT and LLA for the Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) programme. LLA is also an approved Learning Provider for the Enhanced Learning Credits scheme, designed to provide assistance to qualifying British Military service personnel in gaining a nationally recognised qualification.

Hull

UK GLOBAL LEARNING ASSOCIATION FOR SCHOOLS (UKGLAS) is a co-operative network which exists to support a range of professionals who have a role in supporting the international and/or global dimension in education. The Association was founded in 1996 and until 2008 was known as UKAEIES (UK Association for European and International Education in Schools). UKGLAS is registered as a charity in the UK (registration number: 1063668). The overall mission of the Association is to support the membership as they work with schools and school networks of all types to develop an international outlook and prepare their learners for life in an increasingly globalised society. Regular inputs from these organisations and opportunities for networking are part of the benefits of membership. The current membership of around 25 includes personnel working in a range of over-lapping contexts. They include international education consultants, Local Authority international co-ordinators and advisers, workers from Development Education Centres and languages specialists. Prior to the 2019 UKGLAS held regular meetings (usually three per annum in London) plus an annual conference. During the pandemic these meetings and conferences were held online. We resumed face to face meetings (with optional virtual attendance) on 18th October 2022. Please see the Membership and Meetings pages for details GLOBAL LEARNING ASSOCIATION (GLA) is the not-for-profit trading arm of UKGLAS established in 2012 (Company number 7468905). UKGLAS membership entitles individuals to apply to become GLA Associates at no extra cost. The GLA is able to bid for commercial contracts and pay suitably qualified Associates for their work. The majority of our Associates are also qualified teachers and some have recent experience of headships or other senior management posts. The GLA has been part of several British Council programmes including all the iterations of Connecting Classrooms. We also held the contract for the assessment of the International School Award up to August 2022 and look forward to bidding into a successor contract in the coming weeks. Our EU work included many Key Action 1 training courses and we hope to re-start these outside of the UK in 2023. We currently manage one of the final EU Erasmus + projects – see www.getcreativewithart.org Many of our Associates are also British Council Ambassadors.
