Steven Wines, CEO of New Career Skills, said: "We believe that we can support students left stranded by the collapse of Access 2 Trade Skills.

"We are looking at ways of delivering training in order for these students to complete their career change and not incur unnecessary additional expense."

New Career Skills does not rely upon third-party funding, instead all loans are underwritten by the company itself. The training provider is recognised by all of the relevant awarding bodies - City and Guilds, BPEC and EAL.

The company boasts strong financial backing as its major shareholder is Bridges Ventures, an innovative investment company that delivers both financial success and social benefits, which has 150m of funds under management and is regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
