SPONSORS OF REGIONAL FOCUS
HOTA (HUMBERSIDE OFFSHORE TRAINING ASSOCIATION) A market leader for the provision of nationally approved training for Offshore, Maritime and Onshore Organisations
HOTA makes an increasing financial contribution to the local economy by attracting over 5000 delegates each year from all over the UK and abroad, many of whom require hotel accommodation and leisure facilities during their stay in the area.
HISTORY Since its inception in 1987, HOTA has been a pioneering training organisation. It began life in rented offices in Hull City Centre offering just 6 nationally approved training courses for the Offshore Industry and was very much “a middle man” subcontracting training delivery out to the local College and Fire Brigade.
CHARITY STATUS
As a Limited Company with Charity Status, it has continuously reinvested any surplus funds generated by its training activities into enhancing, expanding and diversifying its facilities, having read the market and anticipated demand as sectors broaden and training needs deepen. Today it boasts 3 major sites in Hull, two on Malmo Road and one on Albert Dock.
WORLD TRADE CENTRE HULL & HUMBER
TRAINING COURSES
It now offers more than 100 courses (most of which are nationally approved by the relevant bodies) across 9 training streams for both Offshore and Onshore Organisations. It employs more than 30 staff and is currently expanding, yet again, in preparation for meeting the safety training needs of the rapidly expanding Wind and Renewable Sectors.
ASPIRATIONS HOTA intends to be the first Centre in the UK to provide Renewable UK nationally approved Marine Safety Training and Working at Height & Rescue Training courses on one site. These developments will bring improved facilities for existing clients working in Oil and Gas Exploration and will meet the needs of the fast growing wind turbine sector.
The World Trade Centre Hull & Humber is home to UK Trade & Investment, Team Humber Marine Alliance and Renewables Network and is situated in the heart of the UK’s renewable energy sector.
SUPPORT SERVICES AND STATE- OF-THE-ART FACILITIES Offering a range of support services and facilities including a state-of-the-art video conferencing suite, incubation hubs, and catering and secretarial services, the World Trade Centre is the “go to” destination for businesses involved in the supply chain.
