MSA Interactive Offers Free Training to Charities

MSA Interactive, specialists in on-line assessment and development tools, announced today that the company will provide its staff development services free of charge to 12 registered UK charities throughout 2007, one each month of the year. The company plans to work with charities that support education and training in the UK and abroad.

The announcement comes at a time when charities are at their busiest - the Christmas season - and when competition for scarce resources has never been greater. In order to maximise their effectiveness, charities, like businesses, are starting to prioritise staff development. CEO Vandy Massey sees the New Year as an opportunity for non-profit organisations to prepare for next Christmas and beyond. "MSA Interactive will partner with some of our training associates to provide a 360 Review and a one-to-one feedback session for senior executives at each charity that we work with," Massey said. "The package will be delivered at no cost, and with no obligation to work with us beyond the month in which we provide our service. This initiative will allow the charities to benefit from our training without depleting their operating funds."

MSA's 360 Review tool is a managed online utility that enables organisations to improve the performance of employees by identifying their strengths and development areas. In a one-to-one feedback session, the results of reports are used to create specific action plans for the employee.

Charities wishing to take advantage of MSA Interactive's 2007 Initiative should contact Vandy Massey, either by email, on contact@msainteractive.com, or by post, at MSA Interactive, PO Box 972, Whittlesford, Cambridge CB2 4WQ.
