PIP was established in 2005 and in 2008 the first PIP Professional Training and Services Academy was opened by Councillor Reverend Emmanuel Obafohan The Worshipful The Mayor of Barking and Dagenham. Since then PIP has rapidly progressed, building partnerships and alliances with local social enterprises, local businesses and the local authority, delivering accredited courses which benefit people from all sections of the local community.

PIP is an ambitious company, with a social conscience, and we are pleased to be making a contribution back to the community which surrounds us. We recognise that we exist in an area of economic and social deprivation and we are motivated to up skill members of the community in order to develop a greater local skill base thereby creating more opportunities for local people through increased employability.
