We understand that a trained and qualified workforce contributing to your profit, is the key to a successful business in this competitive environment. With this in mind we have put together a new schedule of courses for our Autumn 2010 term which starts on the 6th of September with one of our CDM courses.

Amongst the many new courses for this term... as requested by those who have attended our existing NEC courses, we have developed the NEC ECC Advanced Users’ Guide to provide delegates with a working knowledge of the NEC forms with a review of the contract in use, at an advanced user’s level. Also new to this term ‘The effective management of target cost contracts in the Infrastructure sector’ which will be invaluable to those working for Employers, Main Contractors and Sub-Contractors in sectors such as rail, utilities, nuclear, power and process engineering. Back due to popular demand we also offer ‘The essential guide to property & development law ...’, aimed at an intermediate level for construction and property professionals to highlight the risks and salient issues involved in the stages of land acquisition and disposal, for both investment properties and major development sites.

Subjects also new to this term include...
. CDM for Designers

Alway Silver Group Celebrates 20 Years of Business

12/07/2010 12:05:23

On the 26th June we celebrated our 20th anniversary with a dinner and party at Wokefield Park near Reading. Just over 100 members of staff and guests came along to help us celebrate this significant milestone and a great night was had by all. Back in June 1990, Lorne Alway founded Alway Associates to provide contract and commercial advice to our Clients in the construction and allied industries. The business has grown over the years to where we now have ten offices supporting our Clients around the UK, the Republic of Ireland and beyond. In fact in 2009 the Alway Group was recognised in the Building survey of the top 250 consultants as the 18th fastest growing consultancy. We now consist of 3 main operating companies Alway Associates, BrunswickIS and Construction Study Centre, with 2 more businesses Alway IT (IT consultancy) and Construct Safe Ltd (Health & Safety consultancy) being developed at the moment.

However we never forget that our success can only be thanks to our Clients’ satisfaction with the services we offer. Central to our work ethos is the belief that our consultants and speakers are able to combine extensive practical experience of their sectors with a range of professional qualifications. This gives us an authoritative knowledge of our subject areas enabling us to offer a unique and beneficial blend of services to our Clients based on the following principles:
• We always seek to resolve Clients’ problems as efficiently and cost effectively as possible.
• We deal with Clients on a personal and individual basis so that they know that we will provide them with excellent pro-active advice and at a very early stage.
• When our Clients contact us they will know who will be dealing with their instructions and that they can rely upon us as a part of their team.
• We ensure that deadlines are met, problems dealt with expeditiously and calls are returned promptly.
