Training & Development for Government Organisations
We offer bespoke coaching for every level of government, from regulators and commissions to local authorities. That ranges from internal coaching – developing your own teams – to outreach programmes that reignite the communities you serve.
Whether you seek to improve efficiency or level out opportunity, it’s all about unlocking talent, for the good of all.
Developing skills and outcomes through
UK government agencies

Tailored provision to suit your target outcomes
Nothing is “off the peg” here. Whether you’re devising a programme from scratch or taking a skeleton brief from another government body, we’ll put together a custom package that meets your specification – fully aligned with the needs and talents of your local community.
For instance, say you’re planning a skills programme to boost employment prospects. Instead of generic training, we can tailor something that will:
- Account for local conditions, like layoffs or sector bias
- Respond to new investment, to ready the local workforce
- Cater for the diverse interests and ambitions of learners
- Develop learners one-to-one – tying lessons to lived experience
In other words, “bespoke” to us means customising twice – adapting first for local needs, then adapting again for each learner.

Case Study
Supporting migrant communities through Newport City Council
Newport in South Wales has a rising migrant population, where unemployment levels have been disproportionately high. Seeing a route to improvement through adult learning, the city council turned to MEP in 2023.
Together, we devised a 2-year programme for migrant learners, designed to:
- Increase proficiency in English, through an ESOL course that builds on the home and work life of each individual
- Improve job prospects through employability training, focused on each learner’s interests, skills and personal barriers
- Lay foundations for teaching, with ESOL-specific skills that can lead to formal qualifications
This holistic package set out to fill immediate skill gaps, and lower barriers by passing on language skills through communities. It was a vital step towards cultural integration, while reducing the harms of economic inactivity.

In the client’s own words:
“We have worked with MEP to shape this delivery, so it meets the requirements of an ever-changing programme. MEP has shown flexibility, adapting to the changes we require in a cooperative and positive manner. This is what is needed when delivering a programme that changes on a frequent basis.
The tutors working at our offices are highly trained, adaptable, and professional. They have built excellent relationships with the learners and the staff on our projects. I feel that their conduct and professionalism is outstanding and fits within the corporate environment that we work.
I highly recommend Minerva Elite Performance and feel that they will provide excellent support to other Local Authorities and organisations.”
Karl Rudakov – Delivery Manager, Newport City Council
MEP has been the trusted training partner for the Gulab Sorkh Foundation as we seek to build independence in the Afghan evacuees we support.
They have developed an excellent programme of English language training with an emphasis on good citizenship and employment skills. This is delivered by MEP professionals sensitively and effectively. The MEP service has been truly first rate and we couldn’t recommend them more.

Minerva Elite Performance delivered their Leadership in Action Seminar and Workshop at RAF Coningsby, helping to build on Service Personnel’s existing knowledge of leadership values and techniques.
The workshop was well received with an excellent attendance rate and positive feedback, with many participants commenting on the enthusiasm and professionalism of Craig, the knowledge on leadership styles and the enjoyment of the interactive activity. Additionally, participants enjoyed how engaging the session was and many wished it had been longer to delve into the topic in more detail. In the future, we would be delighted to welcome MEP back to deliver this workshop again.

Molly was our main point of contact, and from start to finish, she was absolutely spot on.
The students really enjoyed the session and said it would be great if she could deliver more courses for the next group of Uniformed Protective Services students coming through. We will definitely be getting MEP back in.

We at Balfour Beatty strive to create a safe working environment for all our staff.
This is sometimes assured through impactful training on topics that add value to the daily operations of all our internal stakeholders. Minerva Elite Performance worked incredibly hard to ensure that the training was engaging, thought-provoking, but most importantly added operational value.

Balfour Beatty Living Places, Hereford
Re-entering an academic training environment was a daunting prospect after several years decades away from it!
In hindsight there really was no need whatsoever for concern, the Minerva Team are small and perfectly formed, from my initial first contact through to finishing the qualification they were always there to support me every step of the way.
