Resource Solutions, a leading international provider of workforce and advisory solutions, is today delighted to announce the successful graduation of the first cohort of candidates to complete its Accelerate academy programme.
The Accelerate programme uses InfinityGlobal.io’s proprietary digital platform to identify and source undiscovered talent – applicants that lack industry experience or formal qualifications but possess the aptitude to succeed and ability to upskill in new industries – and matches them with organisational need.
Over eight weeks, the participants received intensive training to adapt their existing skills sets to meet the demands of a business analyst role at a range of Resource Solutions’ clients, including global financial services, pharmaceutical, healthcare and professional services businesses. The graduates will now be deployed as Employed Consultants to Resource Solutions’ client
Commenting on the graduation, Norma Gillespie, CEO of Resource Solutions, said: “We launched the Accelerate programme nine months ago because we are passionate about building skills and increasing equality of opportunity for all, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, location, professional or educational background. We source and recruit for clients in over 60 countries, and this programme will open so many doors for the candidates involved. I am incredibly excited to see what they can achieve. This is the future of work – placing skills at the forefront of the recruitment process.”
And this is what some of the candidates had to say: -
-Aniqa: “Preparing to return to work as a new parent was always going to be tough.
Starting in a new industry completely even more so! The personal support I have been given these past eight weeks through the Accelerate academy has prepared me really well. I feel ready to get stuck in and make a difference”.
- Koyin: “Nothing can stop me now! Even as someone with in-field experience as a business analyst, I feel like I’ve benefitted enormously from the past eight weeks. I’m ready to take my career to the next level and am very excited to work with some of the biggest brands in the world”. -
-Olugbenga: “I’m so happy Resource Solutions found me. The training has prepared me to really excel in a business analyst role, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store next
Resource Solutions will shortly begin the next round of the Accelerate programme. The programme is highly scalable, with the number of candidates enrolled increasing over time, and will include training for a variety of different roles to match the evolving strategic imperatives and needs of Resource Solutions clients.
