LDC recognises that training is an essential ingredient for the continuing success of the company. To obtain our objectives in Quality Assurance, Health and Safety, Technical Awareness and Profitability, training must be given the highest priority.

We have an established Training Policy and review all our staff on a regular basis. Our aim is to identify individual requirements and implement a programme of training.

The Directors and Managers are expected to actively pursue Continued Professional Development. Courses organised by the Landscape Institute, the Building Federation, BALI and other associated organisations are attended on a regular basis.

All site employees, including subcontractors, are required to attend technical skill courses and health and safety courses, for example National Proficiency tests, CITB Certificate of Training tests and 'Tool Box Talks'.

We are developing an in-house training system. LDC's library of working methods and landscape details allows us to set a company standard for all operations.

The training structure is a continual cycle ensuring all our employees receive the correct training and development on an ongoing basis.
