How to turn Industry Standards into Sales Success

National Occupational Standards (NOS) and Apprenticeship Standards aren’t just frameworks – they’re your blueprint for sales excellence. By aligning your strategy with these industry-recognised benchmarks, you could build stronger teams and drive better results.

These standards are designed to help you:

  • Identify skills gaps and development needs in your sales team
  • Create targeted training programmes that deliver real results
  • Set clear performance metrics aligned with industry best practices
  • Build ethical selling practices that boost customer trust
  • Support career progression through recognised qualifications

As a CPD-accredited platform, The Growth Hub unites sales, revenue, and customer success through industry-leading CPD-accredited training. Founded in 2020, The Growth Hub can empower your teams to win and retain more business in less time. We provide the UK’s most trusted event, the National Sales Conference, delivering independently accredited content guaranteed to future-proof revenue leaders, account, sales and customer success teams.

As such, our content can help you to use National Occupational Standards (NOS) and Apprenticeship Standards to achieve success in sales. All of our content naturally falls into the categories forming the “Knowledge,” “Skills,” and “Behaviours and Values” pillars of the National standards. But now we are making it even easier, by signposting exactly the category that each piece of our content covers, relating to these standards.

Learn how to harness National Standards to develop high-performing sales teams and drive sustainable growth.
