Ipswich Borough Council has let another unit in its IP-City Centre business and conference venue located in Bath Street, Ipswich.
Moving back to the IP-City Centre are WS Training who will be delivering bespoke study programmes, traineeships and high-needs provision for those aged 16-18 and up to age of 25 with Education and Health Care Plans (EHCPs). These programmes are designed to meet the needs of the individual, supporting them to develop life-skills, gain vocational qualifications, prepare for and gain employment.
The new premises will also host a CIAG (Careers, Information, Advice and Guidance) Hub to ensure all learners can benefit from impartial careers, information, advice and guidance to help them fulfil their career aspirations.
IP-City Centre is a modern business and conference centre, with high specification office suites, flexible conference facilities and meeting rooms to accommodate up to 100 people.
Says Cllr David Ellesmere, Leader of Ipswich Borough Council,
“We are pleased to see the return of WS Training to IP-City Centre. It is a sign of the success of both the business and IP-City Centre that they have taken this additional accommodation. This is a positive indication of recovery in the local economy. We are seeing a definite upswing in the Ipswich lettings market and the Council is experiencing a lot of interest in its commercial properties. There are still a small number of office units available at IP-City Centre but there is strong demand and they are going fast.”
Says Jane Wood, Owner and Executive Chair, WS Training,
“We are delighted to be moving back to IP-City. The opportunity to expand our premises at IP-City has enabled us to create tailor-made work spaces, providing the perfect learning environment to ensure we can fully support all our learners to reach their potential and gain invaluable knowledge, skills and behaviours.”
