Who are Elevated Knowledge?

 

So you want to know more about us?

Good!

We are happy to tell you!

At Elevated Knowledge, we are more than just an engineering training centre;

We are a catalyst for building successful careers in Industrial Engineering and Lift Engineering.

Our journey began in 2015 when our visionary & CEO, Kieron McCormick, drew upon his extensive experience in the lift industry, to develop a training programme that aimed to eliminate the knowledge gaps he faced himself as a young apprentice.

Motivated by a passion for empowering the next generation of lift engineering professionals, Kieron and his team  travelled across the UK, delivering our specialised training programme to numerous lift engineering companies and hundreds of apprentices.

In March 2023, Elevated Knowledge took over an Engineering Training Facility that had provided Engineering Training to Industry for 57 years but was then under the threat of closure. Elevated Knowledge had experience with this facility and knew of its local importance. They could not stand by and see the facility close, as they knew this would create a significant engineering skills training gap, affecting hundreds of potential engineers.

Today, Elevated Knowledge stands as a beacon of excellence, committed to providing top-notch apprenticeships and commercial courses that elevate skills, knowledge, and careers not just in Lift Engineering but also in Industrial Engineering.

Join us on this journey to reach new heights in engineering expertise.
