NSAR Information

We are a not-for-profit membership organisation and expert skills & workforce consultancy helping to deliver a modern and efficient world-class railway. Driven to have a skilled, well trained, and productive workforce now and into the future. At NSAR, we are impartial and trusted by Government to provide solutions to meet the increasing needs and demands of a modern rail industry, championing industry views in our policy and advocacy work. Our specialist teams provide insights, quality assurance and workforce services to develop and sustain a highly skilled workforce. NSARE was established in November 2010, and NSAR Limited was incorporated in January 2011 as a ‘not for profit’ company, wholly owned by its Members. In December 2015, we dropped the ‘E’ from our name to reflect the wider industry view that we focus on all aspects of the rail industry not the engineering elements. Today we have in excess of 360 Member organisations and in June 2013, we were presented with our BS 11000 Certificate of Registration for Collaborative Business Relationships.
