Tony Sanders

Director / Head of Training & Developement

I have over 35 years’ experience in Development, Delivery and Training in the Educational, Construction and Fitness sectors. Initially coming from the background of running a family owed Construction Company that was involved in multi-faceted deliberations that included new build and renovation of properties, both Domestic and Commercial. Moved into the Fitness Industry in the 1990s running my own gym that specialised in Personal Training for both the general public as well as those clients with special needs. After relocating to the S.W. of England, I was engaged with running two workshops in Exmouth and Honiton delivering Construction training and life skills for young people (16-18) in the area who were disengaged from mainstream education.  Funding brought this vey successful project to a close in 2001 and I was then employed by the CITB as a Training Advisor and OSAT Co-ordinator. I was party to the development of the OSAT programme that is this in existence today. A move to London in 2005, saw me obtaining a position at Hackney Community College. My remit was to train unemployed construction personnel, both Tradesmen and Management, to attain Assessor status in their Occupational sector. This proved to be a “ground breaker” with over 100 individuals coming through the course with positive outcomes. Again, funding issues brought the courses to a closure and I then became a Freelance Consultant helping Training providers, throughout London, either set up or acting as an Assessor or Verifier for same. I also delivered many other qualifications during this period including the original PTLLS course. My present position with the GSP allows me to “bring to the table” my previous experiences, within many sectors, that can compliment all that we are delivering, both now and intend to deliver, in the future. My involvement with the Trade Unions has also seen me take up the role of a Union Learning rep.
