Training Academy
Located in the heart of Hull City Centre at our Anchor Court building, the HICA Training Academy provides high-quality training for HICA staff and external organisations.
Our dedicated team of expert trainers delivers a wide range of programmes designed to support learning, development, and professional growth. Training takes place at our Academy and through satellite locations across our services. This ensures colleagues at every location can access relevant and practical learning opportunities.
The Academy is fully equipped to deliver all mandatory and specialist training required by HICA employees. As a result, our teams can continue to build their confidence, develop new skills, and provide the highest standards of care.
In addition, we have expanded our services to support other care providers and corporate clients. Through tailored training solutions, we share our knowledge and experience to help promote excellence across the wider care sector.
Steve Reed, Head of Learning & Development, highlights the importance of the Academy’s work:

“Investing in our staff is key to delivering outstanding care. Our Training Academy provides our people with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to succeed. We are also proud to share our expertise with other organisations and support their learning journeys.”
At HICA, we believe learning should be dynamic, inclusive, and innovative. Therefore, our training programmes are carefully designed to improve skills, increase confidence, and support professional development.
Our trainers bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to every session. They combine practical insights with the latest industry guidance to create engaging learning experiences. Most importantly, they ensure every programme meets regulatory requirements while inspiring learners to achieve their full potential.
