Sierra 57 Reflect on a Successful Year
At the end of another busy year at Sierra 57 we have taken time to stop, look back and reflect on what has been achieved. In 2021 we realised that developing skills in the moulding industry was of vital importance for effective workplace performance.
It was evident that countless moulders work hard day in day out pushing buttons but not totally understanding how injection moulding machines work. So, we took a step back and developed training courses to review the basics to build a foundation of knowledge to develop the skills required.
This enabled companies to maximise the potential of their teams by investing in their personal development. We have been able, through training, to help individuals to learn new skills, adapt to change and grow in confidence.
In three years, we have delivered 558 courses to 1,485 students with a 98% pass rate. With courses approved for CPD by the IOM3, 221 students have achieved CPD recognition for their training with 4,456 hours of training completed.
In 2024 our training team delivered 202 courses on our customers sites to 467 trainees. Seventy-four students have successfully completed 1,920 hours of CPD training with others working towards completion in 2025, made possible by the modular format of our training.
Our training team’s dedication to sharing their knowledge and experience has been welcomed by students and customers. It has been well received and recognised for the impact it has had within the plants we have worked.
Q4
In Q4, due to the requirement for training in 2025, we have added two trainers to the team, Vince Green and Tom Creasey who will be sharing their knowledge with trainees in 2025 as they deliver the training modules.
