We’re delighted to announce that Educ8 Group has been named the winner of the Outstanding Workplace Culture award at the Wales Business Awards 2025!
This prestigious recognition is a testament to our ongoing dedication to nurturing a working environment where people feel supported, valued, and empowered to thrive.
Organised by Chambers Wales South East, South West & Mid, the Wales Business Awards shine a spotlight on organisations making a real impact in their sectors across the Welsh business landscape. This win means more than just recognition; it reflects the heart of what we do across our Group, which includes Educ8 Training, Aspire 2Be, Haddon Training Limited, and ISA Training.
Ann Nicholas, Customer Account Director at Educ8 Training, said:
‘This award underscores our mission to build a workplace where people can thrive every day. We’re incredibly proud of our culture and grateful to be recognised alongside so many forward-thinking businesses who are also raising the standard across Wales.’
Celebrating our employer partner, Safran
We also want to extend a special congratulations to one of our valued employer partners, Safran, who were awarded ‘Apprenticeship Scheme of the Year’ at the same event – a well-deserved achievement!
Safran is a world-leading technology group operating in the aerospace, defence, and space industries. With over 100,000 employees and a presence in 276 facilities globally, Safran plays a pivotal role in driving innovation and sustainability in aviation.
Safran has enrolled a significant number of their team members onto Educ8’s apprenticeship programmes, equipping them with valuable leadership and management skills that enhance both Safran’s operations and their own career growth.
“Safran Seats GB was awarded the Apprenticeship Scheme of the Year Award at the 2025 Welsh Business Awards. The award was a recognition of the growth of our apprenticeship scheme over the last several years, moving from a just a handful of apprentices to now over 50 on scheme.
We work closely with Educ8 and our collaboration has been a stepping stone to achieving this success. SSGB was also shortlisted in the sustainability category for the work done in optimising environmental efficiency and reducing our carbon emissions. Well done to all involved!”
The success of Safran’s learners is a brilliant example of what can be achieved when industry and education come together to invest in people. Their dedication to developing future talent mirrors our own values and purpose, making them a perfect partner in our mission to provide high-quality training.
These achievements reinforce the power of great partnerships, forward-thinking leadership, and investing in people, whether employees or apprentices.
