Training group take route to award

Nov 27 2008 by Gary Fanning, Hamilton Advertiser

HAMILTON-based Routes to Work South (RTWS) scooped a prestigious award.

The group picked up the award for Excellent Partnership Working.

It was given to RT WS because they successfully created a programme that identified and filled a skills gap within the Westcrowns Group in Rutherglen.

RTWS, in partnership with Westcrowns, Scottish Enterprise Lanarkshire, South Lanarkshire Council and John Wheatley College in Glasgow delivered innovative bespoke training programmes for Harndec (flooring) and Reglit (architectural glass), both part of the Westcrowns Group.
