A Message from Our MD, Helen Necrews

In 1983, I set out on a mission—to co-create a company that puts learners first. After a director buyout in 2020, I had the opportunity to reshape our future, and with a new name and a fresh brand, Catapwlt was born. But our core mission remains the same: to genuinely help people and businesses grow.
From day one, I believed in the power of tech education to transform lives. That's why we focus solely on digital and IT training—because this industry is constantly evolving, and people deserve the skills to thrive. Our team of expert assessors, each with at least 5 years of industry experience, ensures our learners gain real-world knowledge that makes a difference.
Our structured, online-first courses provide flexibility without compromising on quality. With small learner cohorts, we offer the support, guidance, and attention needed to succeed. It's a model that works—we've built trusted partnerships with over 200 businesses, from the DVLA to Cardiff Council, and SAS International.
This company has always been about people—the learners who trust us with their futures and the businesses that rely on us for skilled professionals. As we continue to grow, one thing will never change: Catapwlt is here to empower, support, and help you succeed.
This is just the beginning, and I'm so proud to be on this journey with you.
