Grow your people without covering the full cost
If your business is based in Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham or Sheffield, Skills Bank could part-fund your training. Public money is matched with your own investment, so you build the skills your business needs to grow at a fraction of the usual cost.
BSA Training designs and delivers Skills Bank training built around your business, not pulled off a shelf. Face to face or virtual, short course or long-term programme, always tailored to your business and team.
What we cover: leadership and management, team development, sales and account management, coaching, behavioural and organisational change, customer service, communication, and business planning.
Is your business eligible?
Skills Bank is managed by the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA). In short, you will need:
- A physical business site in Barnsley, Doncaster, Rotherham or Sheffield
- At least 12 months of trading, established revenue and a credible growth plan
- Private sector status (start-ups and public sector organisations are not eligible)
- A conversation with a SYMCA Skills Advisor within the last six months
- Training that supports your growth plans and is not a statutory requirement
- Participants aged 19 or over with the right to work in the UK
Your business must also hold appropriate employer insurance, comply with industry regulations and fall within national Subsidy Control Limits.

Why train with BSA?
Because the training sticks. Every workshop ends with an action plan, and every participant reports back on progress next session. No theory for theory’s sake, just practical techniques your team applies in the workplace straightaway, in sessions people genuinely enjoy. And when the programme ends, the support doesn’t: aftercare comes as standard.
We were recognised at the Doncaster Business Awards as runner-up for Small Business of the Year and finalist for Success through Partnership Working.
“We recently invited Bobby back for a second time to deliver a two-day training course around his Leadership Toolkit, and once again we were blown away by his skill, knowledge, warmth and sense of fun.”

I'd highly recommend Bobby. He has an extremely personable approach to his training and adapts his style according to the group. Both the course content and delivery were tailored to our business, and he showed true professionalism throughout.

What other customers say ….
Bobby came highly recommended, but his previous experience and great programme of work were the deciding factors. His approach is very smart, friendly and approachable. He easily finds out what the challenge is even if you are struggling to articulate it.
Paul Walters, Operations Manager at Addooco
The feedback from all the sessions has been fantastic. Bobby’s delivery and the useful content have made the sessions enjoyable and empowered colleagues to self reflect and develop a great start to a culture of continuous development.
Lucy Goddard, HR Manager at Pricecheck
Bobby just has the knack of motivating and engaging at all levels. Our whole team have huge respect and look forward to every session. Breadth of topics covered is just huge and Bobby will work with you to create bespoke packages to suit all of your colleagues.
Suzanne Cantwell, Head of People at Green Spark Group
I have really loved the Leadership and 1 to 1 Training with Bobby. I feel it has helped me develop and understand how I am going to progress into my new role within HR, and it has also helped me to really understand how I can communicate better with my team and understand each of them.
Abby Naylor, HR Manager at Powertherm Contracts
I had the pleasure of being coached by Bobby through a leadership campaign with our entire senior team. The sessions were structured, fun and thought-provoking; they have played a key role in getting us as a leadership team focused and working together as one.
