Excel Partnership and Bywater Training Join Forces

Excel announce that, as of the New Year 2015, Excel Partnership is combining its Management Systems training and consultancy businesses with Bywater Training.

Having worked together for a number of years, this merger will enable us to create a more effective and sustainable business with a greater range of training course and consultancy products and services for our customers. The resulting company BywaterExcel will be one of the largest independent providers of approved Auditor and Management Systems training in Europe.

"This is a well-matched union of expertise between organisations with similar ethos and values and is a logical progression for both companies, securing our success into the future. With a strong culture of delivering excellence and long-term learning, we will expand our product range whilst maintaining the quality and solution-focused training expected by our customers." says Geoff Doole, Managing Partner of Excel Partnership.
