David Ruffley MP will be officially opening Pitman Training Bury St Edmunds on Friday 9 June.

Pitman Training is the oldest and longest running independent training company and has the largest independent UK network of training centres. There are more than 70 Pitman Training Centres all over the UK, Ireland and the Middle East, training 50,000 people every year.

The centre based at 1st Floor, Everards House, 2 Cornhill will give local residents and businesses the opportunity to train in high quality courses offering up-to-date office, IT and business skills.

Pitman Training courses cater to a range of skills, and offer flexible learning options so students can choose when and how frequently they learn.

David said:

'I am very much looking forward to opening Pitman Training Bury St Edmunds, it will offer the people of the town and the surrounding area a wonderful opportunity to learn and develop new skills.

'Pitman Training courses cater for a variety of needs; whether someone needs to brush up on basic skills following time out of work or study for a career change they will be able to learn at a pace that fits in with their lifestyle.

'I would like to wish everyone involved with Pitman Training the best of luck with this new centre and look forward to hearing of its future success.'
