Northern Growth Academy has been created to develop learning that works. People and organisations can spend large amounts of money without really gaining the return they wanted. Here at NGA we are committed to producing learning opportunities that make sense and generate real differences for individuals and their organisations.

Our Trainers

All our programmes are delivered by trainers who are experienced practitioners with years of involvement within the private, public and voluntary sectors. They are passionate about helping delegates to make real progress through their learning experience and because of their background experience our trainers have the expertise to aid organisations to address the real challenges of sustainability and development for the future. As people personally involved in professional and organisational development they are all well acquainted with the current challenges being faced within organisations - and able to contribute in a highly relevant and strategic way.

Specialised trainers are also introduced for targeted sessions to play a key role in our programmes, bringing years of hands on leadership and management experience at the most senior levels.

We are eager that all of our sessions are relevant and personally beneficial with a blended learning approach with high levels of group participation through workshop activity, peer group interaction and individual study. Practical application supported by tutor and peer feedback is geared to maximise the development of our learners.

Our Values

All our staff share a strong belief that 'People are Important'. Our core values of excellence, professionalism, passion, positivity, integrity, being future focused and respect all shape our lives, our programmes and our work. We have a genuine commitment to work with individuals to ensure they derive the maximum benefit from their time with us.
