At Corndel, we firmly believe that professional development isn’t measured by how many people start a programme.
It’s measured by how many grow, succeed and deliver real impact. This happens when individuals finish their learning and gain their qualification.
That’s why, we’re extremely proud to once again top the apprenticeship achievement rate tables - while continuing to raise the standard year-on-year.
Yesterday, the government published apprenticeship achievement rates for every provider in the country.
Corndel achieved 78.3% - the highest of any large provider in England, sitting 13 percentage points above the national average. Corndel continues to redefine the benchmark for success - increasing a further 3.4% points on last year’s leading result.
A result like this doesn’t happen by chance. It’s what happens when development is designed to deliver lasting change - for individuals, teams and organisations.
As a regulated sector, the apprenticeship market is not short on high quality data points. They help employers navigate the market and choose the right provider for them.
Achievement rates show:
- People are on the right programme – care is taken to ensure individuals fit the requirements of the apprenticeship standard.
- They’re supported in the right way. We find that our signature one-to-one coaching works best.
- And the outcome is valuable enough to stay the course - Apprenticeships are long, and juggling learning and work can be hard. It’s easy to quit if the training is poor.
Built for what businesses need next
As organisations navigate rapid AI change - development needs to do more than keep pace. It needs to lead from the front.
Our programmes are built to do exactly that.
Through our AI and Data Academies, we equip people with the technical and human capabilities to shape the future of their organisations - not just respond to it.
And with every individual supported by an expert coach, learning becomes applied, practical and immediately relevant - turning insight into action, and action into impact.
