Learning Curve Group is an international training and education specialist. The majority of our business utilises UK-government funding which is set aside for education and gets it to the people who need and want it most, working with employers, individuals, and education providers to help them achieve success.

Since 2004, LCG has grown both organically and through acquisition to become one of the largest and most diverse providers in the country. We have strong values which are all centred around our learners – and that’s how it should be, as we impact over 200,000 each year.

The business has grown by understanding the fast-changing education landscape and by listening to those who matter in their work: employers, employees, school-leavers, the unemployed, and people seeking their next career step. Our ‘Purple People’, the dedicated and passionate people of LCG, help us to deliver success no matter what, to achieve our vision of ‘transforming lives through learning.

Here’s a small insight into how we support our partners and learners:

Our Values

We're passionate about everything we do, especially creating as many opportunities as we can for both young people and adults to gain new skills.

We are committed to continually exploring ways to improve the service that we offer for the benefit of our learners, partners, and employers.

We treat each other with respect and strive to do the right thing through insight, inclusion, honesty, growth, and trustworthiness.

We continually strive to deliver excellence through strategic and sustainable partnerships with a wide range of FE organisations, employers, and wider stakeholders.

We keep our learners at the centre of everything we do and we are driven by the desire to provide life-changing opportunities for them.

We are passionate about supporting Purple People at all levels, empowering them to realise their full potential and progress.
