Welcome to IMME Academy

One candidate.

One month.

Commercially ready.

How the Programme Works

This is a one-to-one, high-intensity commercial training programme run directly by the business owners.

In just 4 weeks, your chosen graduate or apprentice will be immersed in live project tasks, structured learning, and commercial document handling — all inside a real consultancy environment.

Weekly blend:

3.5 days per week at our head office (Rickmansworth)

1.5 days remote, completing live tasks to deadlines

We provide direct mentorship, structured deliverables, continuous feedback, and final certification.

Who It’s For

For businesses who already employ early-career graduates or apprentices

For those specialising in MEP delivery, client-side or subcontractor-side

For L&D, HR, or Commercial Directors seeking a practical, outsourced training pathway for their best suited employees.

You select the right candidate. We build their commercial readiness.

What You Get for Your Business

Condensed technical and commercial development (normally 12–18 months)

MEP Commercial Focus and fit for your business

This is not general QS training — it’s for the MEP commercial environment, where precision, contracts, supply chain, and variation control really matter.

Due to the one-to-one nature of this programme, we accept a single enrolment per calendar month. To secure a slot, full payment is required in advance and your selected candidate must be confirmed at least two weeks prior to start.

Why IMME Academy Exists

While not originally designed as a formal programme, our prototype trial with a graduate employee showed us what’s possible: within 1 month, we condensed years of real-world commercial training into one immersive experience. This insight led to the creation of IMME Academy.

In the MEP sector, there’s a widespread assumption that graduate and apprentice development can be ‘picked up on the job’. But the reality is this: site teams rarely have the time, structure, or tools to train people properly — and commercial teams are too stretched to mentor in any depth. The result? Years of stagnation, missed potential, and costly inefficiencies across the industry.

IMME Academy fills this critical gap. It’s not just another graduate scheme or training course. It’s the first structured, high-intensity, real-world MEP commercial training experience — designed by the people actually delivering the work, and powered by the same proprietary tools, templates, and AI workflows that are shaping the future of the industry.

This isn’t theory. It’s what the industry needed but never had — until now.

MEP commercial delivery is technical, fast-moving, and margin-sensitive, yet most graduate or apprentice schemes leave junior QSs under-supported in this area. IMME Academy bridges that gap by delivering condensed, focused MEP QS training that would otherwise take years more to develop in-house.

Your hires will return more confident, more commercially aware, and more useful to your business — in just one month.

Stand Out. Scale Up. Succeed.

Because You Deserve More Than Ordinary.
