Grant Thornton advises 3B Training Limited

Established In 2010, 3B Training Limited is a leading multi-accredited provider of health and safety training solutions to the construction sector, offering high-quality courses online and through a well-developed national presence, including offices across the North West, Yorkshire and Midlands. 

Having established itself at the forefront of regulatory change in a sector with increasingly mandated upskilling requirements, 3B was primed for scaling as part of a larger group.

With a workforce of over 14,000 contractors and a presence in more than 60 locations worldwide, the acquisition marks a significant step in Morson’s strategic expansion of their training capability. Underpinned by significant cross sell potential through complementary focusses across core end sectors of rail, power, utilities and construction.

Building on our wealth of expertise in the skills and training sector, 3B Training appointed us early to track performance, advise on timing, and expertly manage the sale of the business, comprehensively assessing the strategic options available to find the right long-term solution for the shareholders and management team.

We managed a robust preparation phase, which culminated in a highly competitive process and considerable value realisation for the shareholders.

Our breadth of service combined with a deep understanding of the market delivered an outcome that exceeded the objectives of the shareholders and secured an excellent home for the business to accelerate its next phase of growth.
