10th September 2010, 10:40am

Restaurant and hotel group Whitbread PLC and ThirdForce, the technology enabled learning solutions and services company, are celebrating the achievement of the 1000th Skills for Life learner on the Whitbread programme.

Sarah Brind was the 1000th learner to complete her Skills for Life qualification as part of the Whitbread Apprenticeship programme. 

Brind is a team manager at the Hampton Inn Table Table and Premier Inn in Salisbury and joined five years ago as a team member but was promoted within the business after just three months service.

Lorna Tyrtania, senior product manager at ThirdForce, presented Brind with a certificate of achievement and a bottle of champagne to mark the occasion. 

She said: "ThirdForce are delighted to be able to celebrate this important milestone, which is indicative of the success of the blended approach to Skills for Life in the Whitbread programme and of the dedication and sheer hard work of inspirational learners like Sarah and our team of Learning Support Managers."
