Investors in People is a national standard which sets a level of good practice for training and development. Accreditation is given to companies who can prove they are developing their staff in line with the aims and objectives of both the organisation itself and the individuals who work for it.

Carl Rigby, Chairman and CEO of AIT, is delighted by the company’s success: Our continued IIP accreditation demonstrates our commitment to offering our people every opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge. It also underlines our belief that our continued success is entirely due to the talent of everyone who works for AIT.
