UK military training is rated among the best in the world and typically Ministry of Defence trainers have led training internationally. However, budget squeezes have opened up a gap, and a great opportunity for independent companies, such as Kno Solutions, to fill it.

Paul Cottell, Managing Director, Kno Solutions, explains: “We are a relatively young training company building on the delivery of hardware – e.g. aircraft that are delivered are just delivered without the training on the back. As a niche company, we go to the customer and say’what sort of training would you like?’ and then we redesign the training – bespoke, just for them….it’s wrap around support.”

Kno Solutions’ main focus is in Middle East countries such as Oman, Bahrain, UAE and Kuwait, and its trainers are all ex-military experts
