PerpetuityARC Training responds to surge in demand for online learning courses

PerpetuityARC Training, part of Linx International Group, is responding to a surge in demand for its portfolio of online training courses. The company is experiencing unprecedented international demand from organisations of all sizes, operating across a wide range of sectors, as they look to ensure they have the skills in-house to coordinate their response to the rapidly changing coronavirus situation.

Director of Sales and Marketing at the Linx International Group, Sarah Hayward-Turton states: “Even the most well-prepared organisations with extensive contingency plans, based on thorough risk assessments, have been stunned by the scale and speed of the situation we currently face.” She adds: “Key personnel off sick or isolated, travel restrictions, offices and stores shutdown, supply chain issues affected by manufacturing shortfalls, import delays and panic buying. These are just some of the issues impacting organisations right now. The scale is unprecedented, but effective risk, crisis and disaster management begins with preparation for the worst case scenario.”

Hayward-Turton adds: “We are helping small businesses with no continuity strategy, through to large multi-national organisations who want to train more employees on the latest methodologies and best practice, to ensure that expertise resides in-house, to help manage their response to this crisis, as well as being as ready as possible for what the future may bring.”

Crucially, the accredited training courses provided by PerpetuityARC Training are available online and all offer CPD points. Courses range from bitesize introductions, through to formal accredited security risk management programmes.
