“Equip consistently design and deliver excellent training – our members love them! They learn practical business skills that work, from facilitators who understand them, their industry and their business.

Working with Equip is great – they’re flexible, professional, and nothing is ever too much trouble.  They fit in with what we need and provide real value.  It’s more than a service – it’s a partnership.”

Kim Preston, MTA (Motor Trade Association)

“Financial literacy is really important for our people—both those who work with numbers, like QSs, and those responsible for financial results. The training has definitely improved awareness, sparked great questions, and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.

People are getting a lot out of it—it pulls together the many different pieces of finance in a way that makes sense, helping them see how everything connects. An unexpected bonus is the increased appreciation for what our finance team does, and how each person’s role impacts the wider business. We’ve seen improved compliance as a result.

Working with Equip is easy—they’re flexible, open, and great at tailoring the programme to suit our industry and business. I really enjoy working with them.”

Grant Judge, Dominion Constructors Ltd

“We choose to deal with Lisa and Equip as over the years (and many training sessions) they have consistently delivered excellent value for money.

It is apparent that Lisa has a wide and diverse knowledge and that important ability to be able to connect with people.  Additionally, Lisa has always been very generous and accommodating with her time and resources:  whether it be the initial meeting to discuss my teams’ training needs and distilling those conversations into a customised course, to following up post training and having a touch base session with participants to see how they are progressing.

In recent times Equip have been a great help with improving our training we deliver to customers. We are a software company and while we are very knowledgeable on our product, we are not professional trainers. The Train the Trainer course provided us with very valuable information, tools and tips for delivering training. And even better, we received very positive feedback from our customers after incorporating this learning into our courses.”

Jan Preston, Sysmex New Zealand Ltd
