We have been asking our members from across the industries the reasons why they became a CPD provider. This CPD Member case study was provided by KRTS International. For more information, please visit their CPD Member Directory page.
Please provide us with a brief overview of your organisation. What do you do?
KRTS International Ltd works at the sharp end of mental health – managing acute situations and traumatic events. In your workplace, you could be routinely faced with violence, aggression, accidents, crime or the escalating challenges of public-facing work. Because of this, you may need to build emotional resilience in yourself, your team or your organisation. We provide a range of digital, blended and face-to-face training courses. These were developed to not only build personal resilience but also to give understanding and tools so that you can help yourself after an incident and / or provide support to colleagues. We work with organisations around the world building in-house response teams, planning for events, drawing up procedures and educating workforces.
Why did you become a CPD provider?
Our courses are built on decades of experience and genuine expertise. However, with a recently heightened awareness of mental health, many “experts” are emerging with cleverly branded “fixes.” We believe in quality and substance and wanted to be able to evidence this to potential clients. Our guiding principle is to demystify, simplify and appropriately educate. From years of clinical work, we understand the adverse impact (on individuals, families, organisations and society) when things aren’t done properly. Having our courses externally accredited was felt to be an important way to reassure people of a quality course that delivered what it promised.
How did you implement CPD accreditation in your organisation?
CPD accreditation is fundamental to what we do. It allows us to benchmark our training and we use the CPD framework and questions to ensure we create a quality product or service. Each course we develop goes through a rigorous assessment process to ensure that it meets the high standard we set for ourselves.
How has CPD helped your organisation achieve its learning objectives?
Our learning objectives are to always deliver a consistently high standard of training that has credibility. Getting feedback during the accreditation process has ensured we constantly refine what we are doing and are consistently applying the quality criteria.
