A note from the BID

We are genuinely excited to bring this to our members as the average UK employer spends around £1,700 per employee on training annually. As a BID, our role is to invest in the businesses that make Salisbury what it is and access to quality, affordable training has been one of the most consistent asks we hear from levy payers across the city.

We’d love to hear how you get on. If you take a course, share training with your team, or find a session particularly useful, let us know. We’ll be sharing stories from across the BID community as more businesses get started.

Your access is free and ready to use – already covered by your Salisbury BID membership.
