Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions about joining Training Hub as a provider.

You may advertise courses delivered by freelancers, as long as these courses are delivered under your own training centre. However, advertising course dates provided by other training providers is strictly prohibited. The Essential Training Hub is designed to promote high-quality courses offered by individual providers, not as a resale platform. It is your responsibility to ensure that all advertised courses meet accreditation standards and that you are fully authorised to deliver them. Failure to comply with these terms may result in the removal of your courses and could lead to the suspension or termination of your access to esstraininghub.co.uk.

Absolutely! As a training provider ourselves, we understand the needs of other providers and have optimised the Training Dashboard (available to all approved providers) to make uploading and editing courses as simple and efficient as possible. The dashboard provides clear, step-by-step instructions, along with helpful tutorial videos to guide you through the bulk upload and editing process.

With bulk uploads, you can add course dates by ‘course title,’ allowing you to manage each set of dates for specific courses with ease. This approach minimises errors, and if the system detects an issue with your uploaded CSV file, it is straightforward to correct. We designed the system with this in mind to reduce the chances of mistakes when handling large volumes of course dates, especially when planning for the upcoming year, as we understand how challenging that can be.

At Essential Training Hub, we operate differently from traditional platforms that simply advertise your course dates and take a commission. We display your company logo alongside your course listings and provide a dedicated Bio page with your company details, offering full transparency to learners about who is delivering their training. We serve as a 'gateway,' connecting learners directly with training providers, offering a seamless online booking experience and flexible payment options. Unlike typical brokers who resell courses and take a commission, we ensure you maintain direct contact with clients.

We also offer a risk-free, obligation-free experience, including a free trial period. There’s no long-term commitment, and you can cancel at any time, at which point we will remove your profile. The small monthly fee helps support our ongoing marketing and advertising efforts, ensuring that we bring you new clients, as well as covering the continuous development and improvement of our platform. In addition, you’ll benefit from your own user-friendly Training Dashboard, where you can list as many course dates as you want with no limits, as long as you are qualified to deliver them.

While offering a discount to other providers within your network is appreciated and supportive, the Training Hub offers much more than just a booking platform or a mutual discount agreement. It’s a central marketplace for the UK’s best providers to showcase their business and courses in a trusted environment. Unlike typical platforms, we don’t handle learners or clients after taking a commission, they are directed straight to you. Here’s why it’s worth considering:

  1. Direct Access to Targeted Users: The Training Hub is linked to the ESS website, which receives around 16,000 new visitors per month from highly targeted keywords. Listing your courses on the Hub gives you access to this traffic, increasing your visibility to both learners and industry professionals.
  2. Nationwide Client Service: The Hub allows training providers to easily find course dates to service their national clients. As no single provider can deliver every course in every location, the platform helps reduce the time spent searching for suitable options across different regions.
  3. Avoid Poor-Quality Providers or Scammers: By offering a trusted marketplace, we help you avoid getting caught up with substandard providers or scammers. This protects your business from the negative consequences and reputation damage caused when things go wrong.
  4. Free Trial with No Costs: We offer a free trial that allows you to list your courses without paying the small monthly admin/advertising fee. You can try the platform at no cost and experience the benefits first-hand.
  5. No Commitment: If, after the free trial, you don’t feel the platform is benefiting your business, there’s no commitment to stay. You are free to leave at any time, as there are no binding agreements or long-term contracts.
  6. Support for Course Management: If you need assistance getting your courses initially set up, simply send over your course dates in an Excel file, and our team will help upload them quickly, ensuring everything is live and ready to go. The system is designed to be user-friendly, so we hope you’ll find it easy to list and manage your courses with us.
  7. Networking and Direct Leads: The Training Hub is more than just a directory. It serves as a gateway for both learners and training providers to connect. You’ll manage leads directly and also have opportunities to network with other training providers.
  8. Performance Transparency: After the free trial, we will provide detailed reports on the traffic your courses and listings receive. This gives you clear insights into the value you’re gaining from the platform.

By taking advantage of the free trial, you can explore all these benefits at no cost, with no long-term commitment, and with full support from our team.
