Teesside Training Enterprise (TTE) is officially changing its name to reflect the change in its focus.

Over the past 11 years TTE has grown into a leading provider of management and technical training in both the UK and growing international markets.

To reflect that change TTE has changed its name to TTE Management and Technical Training.

TTE Group's new aim is to work closely at a higher level with leading industrial partners, to provide cutting edge, technologically based solutions and consultancy services.

The successful expansion of the group over the past five years has sealed its place as a market leader in the delivery of an extensive range of specialist training.

The new name and company signage is being brought into force at the group's head office in Middlesbrough and two training centres on Teesside.

Keith Hunter, managing director of the company, said: "The new look TTE will operate to the highest standards of quality and reliability particularly regarding health and safety, which are regarded as hallmarks of TTE.

"We want to give a message to customers and partner companies that TTE Management and Technical Training, whose strap line is "Closer to Industry", is positioning itself in a global market to provide for the training needs of learners, companies and customers."
