Our story

Corndel is a unique, multi award-winning UK management and technology training provider.
Corndel’s vision from the outset was to offer lifelong, brilliant skills training, redefining the traditional apprenticeship to allow organisations to train employees at all levels. We have relentlessly focused on delivering the highest quality programmes for new and existing employees. Our launch of Corndel College London (CCL) allows us to continue to build on this and deliver degrees designed by industry demand, providing better outcomes for both students and employers.

What underpins this training is a people-led approach, trained by experts with both commercial and training experience, combined with a blended learning delivery model.
