Company History

CJ Associates was formed in 1995 to provide food hygiene and health & safety training to the hospitality industry.  Since then, the company has experienced considerable growth, with a significant volume of repeat bookings from customers and now provides training across a varied spectrum of UK industries.

In 2001 we started offering first aid courses and are registered with the Health  & Safety Executive to provide first aid at work training, with our First Aid in Early Years course being approved by both the Pre-school Learning Alliance and the National Child Minding Association.  In addition, we are registered as a training centre with the Royal Society for the Promotion of Health, the Royal Institute of Public Health and the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health for qualifications including food hygiene, health and safety and nutrition.

We work with many organisations throughout the UK to provide short course training and have expanded the range of subjects to now include: food hygiene, health & safety, first aid, management and supervisory skills and staff development.

In 2002, Acorn Childcare Training was formed - our specialist division working with providers in the growing early years sector and offering courses for early years and play work practitioners, which are approved under the SPRITO code of practice..

Our training is consistently highly rated by delegates as providing enjoyable training in a positive learning atmosphere such that they can take on board the skills and knowledge from the course.  With our UK wide network of experienced trainers, each holding relevant professional qualifications in addition to adult teaching qualifications, we can offer a comprehensive service for your training needs throughout the UK.

In 2003, we achieved ISO9001:2000 quality assured registration for our short course training and in 2004, RCN approval for our manual handling & risk assessment trainers courses
