A4e are proud to announce the purchase of Australian Employment and Training Solutions (AETS), a registered training organisation delivering accredited training and skills development in NSW, Victoria and Tasmania.

The UK India Business Council (UKIBC) and FICCI announced the winners of the 1st UK India Skills Forum awards winners at the FICCI Global Skills Summit on the 19th August 2010.

A4e’s Rotherham branch was really keen to do something different for charity this year. After much deliberation, Employer Solutions Manager, Jonathan Fitzgerald volunteered to cycle the distance between Lands End and John O'Groats, but with a twist. He would cycle the distance in Rotherham!

A4e's Karl Gurney, who is a member of the Devon & Cornwall District Support team -　is doing a tandem sky dive on the 25th September, to raise funds for Crohn's and Colitis UK.

Karl, said: "This is also to show support for Ali who is my best mate, who has been battling Crohn's for the last 10 years, and undergone four operations. I wanted to give something back to the charity that supported Ali when she needed help the most. Being the plonker I am, throwing myself out of a plane at 15,000 feet seemed like a good way to do this!"

Karl's sky dive will take place at Honiton in Devon on Saturday the 25th September, at 2.00 pm.
