Testimonials

"
Being trained by Lynx Training Academy to deliver Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training has been professionally enriching and deeply meaningful. Lynx's approach is robust, evidence-based and grounded in lived experience. I now deliver this training in partnership with Experts by Experience across South Yorkshire, ensuring the voices and needs of people with learning disabilities and autistic people are truly reflected. As a professional working in autism, disability and special educational needs, contributing to workforce development that improves understanding, attitudes and practice is both meaningful and impactful. Lynx has created a model that values partnership, quality and social impact—and I'm proud to be part of it.

Their approach goes beyond compliance, focusing on building confidence, understanding, and meaningful change within organisations. What stands out is their commitment to social value and inclusion. By valuing lived experience and making reasonable adjustments part of how training is delivered, Lynx creates learning that is accessible, impactful, and genuinely relevant to the people receiving it. This training supports not only individual development but also stronger cultures, better outcomes, and more inclusive services. Lynx Training Academy is setting a standard that others in the sector would do well to follow.

We sent three staff to Lynx's open course and it was excellent value. The training was professional, engaging, and genuinely insightful. What really stood out was having trainers with lived experience leading the session—it made such a difference. Our staff came back with practical strategies they've already started using.

As a small provider, we can't usually afford to fill 20+ training places. Lynx's open courses changed that for us. We booked just two staff, shared the cost with other providers, and got the same quality training the big providers get. Brilliant model."

Being a co-trainer at Lynx has genuinely changed my life. I'm earning £150 per session, I have proper support, and I'm treated like the professional I am—not a volunteer. Claire and the team believed in me when others didn't. This isn't just a job, it's a career."
