WELCOME TO THRESHOLDS

Premier provider of career development programmes

Thresholds have gained a reputation for delivering high quality career support programmes at affordable prices. Working with the majority of central government departments, we have a deep understanding of Civil Service culture and processes, and are committed to making a positive and lasting impact on organisations and their staff.

All Thresholds programmes and services have one thing in common: enabling individuals, teams and organisations to move from where they are to where they want to be.

We specialise in programmes and workshops for under-represented groups (especially women) but because everything we do is tailored to the unique needs of each individual and group, we can work with anyone, whether in a positive action or general development context.

Much of our work is custom-designed to client requirements within available budgets. If you don’t see what you are looking for, please contact us.

The [Threshold Programme for Leaders] makes a real connection with what our jobs are about. It’s not about gloss or theory, but what I’m trying to achieve and ways to be more effective in doing that.

Carys Evans, Deputy Director, Welsh Assembly Government

Being part of the TPFL programme has been a fantastic experience. I developed a much better understanding of what is important to me in my working life, what I want to achieve and how best I might do that.

Emma Boggis, Deputy Head of Mission, British Embassy Spain

The [TPFL] course has given me invaluable insights into being an effective leader in public service.

Helen Judge, Director, Ministry of Justice

Excellent people, good value for money, flexible and adaptable, and great at engaging staff. Their positive approach and energy is infectious and very welcome.

Nick Carter, Deputy Chief Executive, Driving Standards Agency

The career development workshop that Thresholds ran for our staff received the most positive feedback that we have ever had for a development course.

Colin Adams, Department for Children Schools and Families

I have changed the way I behave over the last 3 days and believe it will have a lasting inﬂuence.

Cabinet Office SCS member

In a recent client survey, 100% of respondents said they would recommend Thresholds to others

Crossing Thresholds has been very successful in achieving significant increases in the number of women advancing their careers at DFID.

Minouche Shafik, Permanent Secretary, DFID

[The Threshold Workshop] is one of the most useful courses I have ever done, as it helped me to focus on what I wanted from my career and built my capabilities.

Rob Wilkinson, Tufts University

I was a bit sceptical about what could be achieved in a relatively short time. In reality, I have found [Communicate With Impact] a truly useful, genuinely developmental experience.
