Overview
Established in 2001 in Newcastle upon Tyne, Eliesha Training is an experienced training provider and L&D consultancy. As specialists in leadership development, we have supported hundreds of organisations and hundreds of thousands of learners across all sectors with access to relevant, engaging and impactful learning experiences developing the knowledge, skills and confidence to thrive in their day-to-day role.
We are a long-term Approved Centre with ILM and the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), delivering their popular and respected qualifications in Management & Leadership and Coaching & Mentoring, from Levels 2 – 7 and via face-to-face, virtual and distance learning delivery. We also deliver the Level 3 and 5 Management & Leadership Apprenticeships, helping employers to access impactful leadership development with their Apprenticeship Levy funds or non-Levy funding.
We design and deliver impactful learning throughout the UK and worldwide, facilitating anything from a one-off virtual workshop to a leadership development programme delivered in a face-to-face learning environment. We have a large library of materials from which we can deliver off-the-shelf sessions or produce contextualised training. Or, as many of our learning partners prefer, we will work with you as subject matter experts to design bespoke training that brings about your exact learning outcomes and delivers your development objectives.
We also produce and licence online Microlearning in the form of our pearls of wisdom® and digital toolkits, as well as providing specialist solutions such as One-to-one/Executive Coaching, Assessment & Development Centres and targeted skills support in emergent areas like EDI, Wellbeing and Coaching-style Leadership.

Working with you…
Learning partnership
We have a demonstrable history of forming long-term, trusting learning partnerships. We recognise that, in the context of a constantly changing and consistently uncertain landscape, it’s more important than ever to have reliable, proven suppliers able to deliver at a consistently high standard and rapidly create tailored, innovative solutions to emergent challenges.
A complete service
In practice, that means delivering outstanding customer service at every stage – from your first conversation with our approachable Business Development team, through your team’s engaging and interactive learning journey with our expert Trainers and Coaches, right through to detailed review meetings with our experienced Contract Managers.
Finding the right solution for you
The culture, context and workforce development objectives of all our learning partners are unique. Hence, we have a diverse portfolio of proven products and services that can be used discretely or blended into the most appropriate learning and development solution.
Learning philosophy
As a trusted supplier to more than 150 public and private sector organisations, our standards, awards, certifications and commitments are core to our success and growth.
The rigour and consistency to consistently delight our customers and bring learning to life for their people are underpinned by a comprehensive set of processes and procedures, all of which adhere to our our ISO9001 (Quality Management Systems) and Cyber Essentials Plus (Information Security) certifications.
Eliesha recognises that climate change poses a threat to the economy, nature and society at large. We commit to immediate action in order to:
- Halve our greenhouse gas emissions before 2030
- Achieve net zero emissions before 2050
- Disclose our progress on a yearly basis
In doing so, we are proud to be recognised by the United Nations’ Race to Zero campaign and join governments, businesses, regions and universities around the world sharing the same mission.
We view training evaluation and return on investment as vitally important in determining and demonstrating the value and impact of any learning solution. Our approach to achieving desired client objectives is to establish a range of relevant measures and assessments. We recommend – and have had significant success with – the 4-step Kirkpatrick model (Reaction, Learning, Behaviour, Results) as a detailed and well-regarded evaluation model.
Our people
The Eliesha team works out of our head office in Newcastle upon Tyne and, to enable UK-wide delivery, we maintain a strategic staffing network of over 250 associate trainers, facilitators, coaches, occupational psychologists and L&D consultants.
Experienced experts
This network includes experience in every sector and expertise in all aspects and areas of professional learning and organisational development. It allows us to recommend a design and delivery team well suited to all our learning partners, including local trainers and facilitators for face-to-face delivery.
Many of our staff and associates are members of professional bodies such as the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) and the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) with many holding CIPD qualifications, as well as degrees and post-graduate qualifications in specialist subject areas.
Pushing the boundaries
The Continuing Professional Development (CPD) of all our staff is fundamental to our proactive, forward-thinking approach and enables them to maintain good professional standing and to work credibly with our clients and learners. Our associates keep up to date with trends in management and leadership by contributions to professional bodies, networks, forums, books, research and by undertaking relevant qualifications. Our consultants regularly attend conferences, events and networking meetings to discuss current learning and development trends and forthcoming changes to ensure we are able to effectively support and advise our clients.
