The Remarkable Collective (TRC) and the International Safety Training Centre (IST College) today announced a strategic partnership that will redefine corporate HR and safety compliance.

This collaboration unites recruitment, leadership development, and accredited safety training into a single, comprehensive offering for employers across Malta and the Mediterranean.

The partnership introduces a powerful, joined-up model focused on hiring, leading, and protecting personnel.

Through TRC’s specialist brands, Ceek Talent and ThinkTalent, organisations can attract, recruit, and develop high-performing teams. By integrating ISTC’s two-decade track record in compliance and survival training, those teams can now be certified to meet rigorous international safety, emergency response, offshore/maritime survival, and health & safety standards.

Mike Roberts, Group CEO of The Remarkable Collective, stated, “This partnership is the realisation of our integrated ecosystem vision. We know talent shortages and compliance are top-of-mind for leaders. By combining ISTC’s world-class safety training with our people expertise at Ceek Talent and ThinkTalent, we are offering a complete solution designed to reduce talent attrition, boost retention, and satisfy safety obligations with unwavering confidence.”

This unified service pathway is specifically designed to address industry demand for certified, highly trained personnel, offering a streamlined process that minimises the administrative burden on HR and compliance departments.

Kevin Keeler, Managing Director, of IST College, added, “Our mission has always been to deliver life-saving skills and globally recognised certification. Partnering with The Remarkable Collective and its ThinkTalent, Think & Consult and Ceek Talent brands, allows us to embed safety training and specialised recruitment expertise directly into an organisation’s talent lifecycle, ensuring high- performing teams are also highly compliant and safe teams, from day one.”

The new joint service, which covers all aspects of workforce acquisition, development, and certification, is immediately available to employers.
