For Immediate Release

London, 12th April 2007

Eukleia Training Limited, the specialist compliance training provider, has been awarded the Accreditation of Training Excellence for Providers by the Financial Services Skills Council (FSSC). This award is one of a series of schemes designed by the FSSC to demonstrate and recognise training providers that have achieved excellence in training services for the Financial Services sector.

Following an extensive application process and external audit that reviewed Eukleia’s services in both instructor-led training and elearning delivery, Eukleia has received the accredited status for an initial period of three years, after which they will be able to renew the accreditation.

FSSC Director of Standards and Accreditation, Lucy Courtenay, said: "We are pleased to award FSSC Accreditation to Eukleia Training. Eukleia has shown great commitment to meet the high standards of quality we require for accredited status.”

“Employers can have confidence that an accredited training provider will meet our high standards for delivery, and will provide tangible benefits to a business in terms of learning goals and performance improvements.”

Patrick Thompson, MD of Eukleia commented, “We are delighted to receive this Accreditation of Training Excellence from the FSSC. It provides a formal recognition of the standards and principles we have worked very hard to achieve and maintain since Eukleia was founded.”

“It is clear from the recent CP07/04 that the FSA views the FSSC as an increasingly important partner in relation to the TC sourcebook under a principles based regime. This award is therefore a timely endorsement of the quality of services Eukleia can deliver to help clients preserve and improve the skills and competence of their employees.”
