BARRHEAD Travel has hailed what it called a “significant” investment in a training academy to help fuel sustained expansion at the group.

The academy, based in Bothwell Street, Glasgow has been designed with the look and feel of a modern branch, providing staff with a familiar learning and development environment.

It also features an outside learning space.

Barrhead Travel chief executive Sharon Munro said: “Our in-house training team has doubled in size in recent years, and this new academy gives us a positive learning environment to develop and grow.”

She also revealed that the Barrhead Travel has introduced a new management development programme into its training portfolio.
