About Us

MyTrainingExpert is owned and managed by KnowledgePool Group Limited, which is the UK's leading provider of learning outsourcing services, the largest buyer of training in the country, and one of only three UK companies in the Global Top 20 as named by the US industry body, TrainingOutsourcing.com.

KnowledgePool was originally founded in the 1970s, has 70 employees and £30 million of revenues, and we currently provide services to over 30 of the largest blue chip organisations, delivering both significant cost savings and improvements in training effectiveness and quality. We set up MyTrainingExpert in order to provide a similar type of service to smaller businesses, and our goal is to bring the benefits of our scale and years of accumulated experience in the field of training to thousands of smaller business customers.

Our rationale for MyTrainingExpert is very simple. Small and medium sized businesses cannot afford to employ their own in-house training function and yet learning and development is just as important in these companies as it is in large corporations.

MyTrainingExpert aims to fill this gap by acting as the "virtual training function" for small and medium sized businesses, providing it's customers with the same benefits that larger corporations get from having their own in-house training team or outsourced partner like KnowledgePool, namely;

Single point of contact for the procurement and administration of all and every possible training need.
Direct access to our network of vetted best-of-breed courses and providers covering all subject matter areas and covering instructor-led training, group in-house training and e-learning.
Discounted prices from these training providers on par with those negotiated by the largest corporate buyers.
Advice from experienced learning experts on training needs, training methods, and course selection.
Downloadable documents, templates, guides, manuals, videos, podcasts, and forms to aid and educate on performance management, skills management, curriculum design, compliance and training evaluation.
Management of your own training records and production of reports.

Whether you are a business with 1 employee or 500 employees, MyTrainingExpert will give you a "FTSE 100" training service and enable you to offer your employees the quality and scope of learning and development that could otherwise never be achievable. This service is entirely free to you as a customer, and furthermore MyTrainingExpert provides its customers with discounts on most courses of between 10% and 40% off the Recommended Retail Price. MyTrainingExpert generates its own fees from its network of training providers rather than from customers. If we don't save you money we don't earn, it's as simple as that! We are what is called "vendor-independent". This means we do not employ any trainers ourselves or have ownership of any training providers - instead we remain entirely on our client's side of the fence, being completely impartial and looking after your best interests. We will always look to source the right training in the right location at the right price to suit each and every unique requirement that you may have.
