Aspire Procurement Training is thrilled to celebrate 10 years! This milestone highlights our commitment to providing top-notch training for procurement and supply chain professionals across the country.
We started with just three students in CIPS courses. Now, we train over 300 students annually as a CIPS Centre of Excellence. It has been an exciting decade of growth and achievement.
Our team has worked tirelessly to build Aspire into what it is today. We have expanded our offerings with short commercial courses on various supply chain topics and achieved main provider status for delivering apprenticeships.
Our growth is thanks to our exceptional clients. Over the last decade, we’ve had the privilege of working with outstanding individuals and companies who have supported us and provided valuable opportunities.
Richard Slater, Director of Aspire, says, “Mark Parker deserves enormous credit for the business he created. Building a business from scratch is a remarkable achievement. Starting with just three students took bravery. Now, with over 300 students annually across the country, we face new and exciting challenges. I’m proud to lead this growth and look forward to expanding our training portfolio. Here’s to the next 10 years!”
The team at Aspire thanks our students and tutors for their support. We eagerly anticipate what the future holds and look forward to continuing our journey.
