Cape plc deal a ‘fantastic coup’ for North Shields firm AIS Training

North Shields firm AIS Training has landed a deal to manage and deliver training for energy services provider Cape plc.

The company will work to equip Cape’s 5,000-strong UK workforce with technical and safety-critical skills and carry out competency assessments.

Spanning five years, the contract will also see AIS managing certificate renewals and course scheduling for delegates, as well as organising travel and accommodation.

AIS Training owns and operates three state-of-the-art industrial training villages in the UK. Its network includes a new £1m purpose-built site in the Westhill area of Aberdeen.

The firm is headquartered on Orion Business Park.

Paul Attrill, training and education director at AIS, said: “Our heritage is rooted firmly in the oil and gas sector, giving us unparalleled experience of the environment in which Cape operates.

“Winning this contract is a fantastic coup and testament to our growing global reputation.”

He added: “As a result of the contract, we will now train more than 30,000 delegates annually across our three UK locations.”
