The new premises will give MPL over 2,000 square feet of floor space to deliver a vast range of existing and new training programmes , including a new Tilt and Turn course , and a new PVCu course . MPL ’ s sales , main office and trade counter is still fully operational from Westgate End , also in Wakefield .

Operations director Nicky England said : “ 2016 was a phenomenal year for MPL . We saw more than double the number of people going through our range of courses compared to the previous year .

“ In no small part this was due to us being awarded the opportunity to deliver training courses with City & Guilds assessment .”

“ There is no more instantly recognisable symbol of quality in learning than City & Guilds , and judging by the number of experienced locksmiths who came to us looking to enhance their skills and their career prospects further it was certainly a good move .

“ But what it also taught us is that the market for locksmith training is growing all the time , and that if we wanted to continue to grow we would need to expand and take on new premises .

“ So we have done exactly that , and as well as enabling us to take in more trainees for our existing courses , it has given us space to offer some new ones as well . We will very

shortly be offering a new Tilt and Turn course and a PVCu course to teach the techniques and the importance to security of toeing and heeling .

“ We have already had significant interest in these and we will be launching further details very shortly . These will complement our existing three and five-day

locksmith training course and our two-day advanced picking course .

“ We are really excited about the prospects for these and for our other courses ,

and we are looking forward to another great year .

“ We will not move away from our core principles of giving the best mix of hands on and theoretical training directly through people who are locksmiths in their own right , or from our on-going after sales and marketing support to our trainees .

“ The new premises are about delivering more courses to more trainees , but all to the same exacting standards we have always done .”
