comprehensive analysis of workplace engagement, opinion and satisfaction in the UK. Alongside its ranking on the list, MPCT has also been awarded the Best Companies’ 3-Star Accreditation status, which represents extraordinary levels of engagement. The announcement was offi cially made at a ceremony held at London’s Battersea Park. “To be part of such a prestigious list is a huge achievement for us, and it reaffi rms the pride so many of us have working for MPCT,” says Donna Briggs, Director of HR at MPCT. “As a company we have worked hard to create an environment in which our staff can succeed and feel completely engaged. We are proud to achieve such an award after only a year of introducing Best Companies to our staff.”


The Ofsted Outstanding training provider, which offers ‘active learning’ opportunities to 14-19 year olds, also extends this ethos to its employees,


going the extra mile to engage and motivate staff.


In the last year alone, this has included a training course delivered in a bunkhouse over four days in the Brecon Beacons, and a meeting with a difference atop the highest mountain in South Wales: staff members were encouraged to write their barriers to success on a 1 inch thick plank of wood, and were then taught the martial art techniques to smash through the wood and these barriers with their bare hands.


Six former learners of MPCT are also now employed by the organisation, working across head offi ce, college and school locations in South Wales. MPCT’s commitment


fundraising and waste reduction also contributed to its place on the Sunday Times 100 Best Small Companies to Work For list, while its emphasis on community


involvement impressed
