Trainers Direct UK is an independent organisation that was set up with the primary purpose of connecting small and medium sized businesses directly with freelance trainers and coaches. Our site is publicly accessible and free to use for those searching for trainers and coaches by either subject expertise or geographic location. Our network is currently solely focused on trainers and coaches based in the UK and Ireland.
Given that membership of our network is subscription based, it is reasonable to assume that our site is always up to date with trainers and coaches who are actively seeking training engagements. While it is for each trainer and business to reach their own agreement on a 'per engagement' basis, we recommend a standard fee structure for core work with the expectation that this will increase marginally for specialist or complex engagements.
Our membership based business model works along co-operative lines with a portion of each members' fees being reinvested in marketing our site via search engines, directories and other online environments. In short, it is a business that is run by trainers for trainers, enabling businesses direct and immediate access to a range of freelance trainers and coaches. This enables businesses to make significant cost savings in their training budgets while providing independent trainers with a valuable source of additional revenue.
