Itec Joins Top 5 UK Employers with Platinum Investors in People Accreditation

Itec Skills and Employment has achieved Investors in People Platinum status, placing us among the top 5 organisations in the UK for companies with 50–249 employees.

This is the highest level of accreditation awarded by Investors in People—an honour held by only a small percentage of organisations—and it speaks volumes about our people-first culture, our commitment to excellence, and the incredible work of every person at Itec.

“It fills me with immense pride that our business has been recognised by Investors in People as a Platinum organisation,” said Ceri Murphy Managing Director. “This is a testament to our commitment to being a great place to be an employee owner—shaping our business, delivering excellence, and sharing in our success.”

Over the last 40+ years, we’ve built our business around people—both learners and staff. Our values were recently refreshed collaboratively, and they guide everything we do from how we work together to how we support career development.

We continue to invest in learning and development at all levels, helping individuals grow professionally while also strengthening the company as a whole.

Mental health and wellbeing are not afterthoughts at Itec—they’re priorities. Initiatives like our wellbeing newsletter, trained mental health first aiders, and our Gold Quality Mark from the Ajuda Foundation demonstrate how seriously we take care of our people.

We’re also proud to be recognised for our inclusive culture, with accreditations from Stonewall, Comisiynydd y Gymraeg/ Welsh Language Commissioner, and the UK Government’s Disability Confident Leader scheme.

In our most recent Investors in People staff survey 96% of employees said they feel committed to Itec’s success.

These results exceed national benchmarks—and they reflect the environment we’ve all helped build: one where everyone belongs, contributes, and thrives.

Congratulations to the entire Itec team.
