We’re now a B Corp: what this means for Pro-Tech (and you)

We’ve got some big news…
Pro-Tech is now officially certified as a B Corporation – and we couldn’t be more proud.

What does that mean in practice? Well, it signals something we’ve always believed in: that we’re more than just a training provider. We’re here to support testers, garages and the wider MOT community in a way that puts people, planet and performance side by side.

Here’s what becoming a B Corp means for us and how it benefits you as a client, partner or tester at Pro-Tech.

What Is a B Corp and Why Does It Matter?

B Corps are businesses that have been independently assessed against high standards of social and environmental impact, governance, transparency and ethics.

It’s a global movement designed to shift what “good business” looks like, from profit alone, to purpose, people and long-term positive impact.

For Pro-Tech, that aligns perfectly with everything we stand for.

Pro-Tech joining that community is a big deal – it means we’ve looked in the mirror, changed what we need to change, and committed legally and culturally to doing what we say we will.

What This Means Inside Pro-Tech

Becoming a B Corp isn’t something you apply for on a whim.
We took a long, honest look at how we operate and made sure our structure, our decisions and our culture all support the same goal:

To make a positive impact while delivering best-in-class MOT training and compliance support.

For us, this includes:

  • Strengthening policies around people, safety, equality and sustainability
  • Updating our articles and governance to legally embed purpose, not just profit
  • Increasing transparency in how we make decisions
  • Reviewing how we support our team, our customers and our wider community
  • Setting measurable impact goals – not just operational ones

It’s made us stronger, clearer, and more intentional.

How you benefit (our customers, clients and testers)

Because this isn’t just about Pro-Tech’s internal shift – it’s about how you experience working with us. Here’s how you benefit:

  • Better integrity and trust: knowing you’re working with a B Corp means you’re partnering with a provider that’s committed to doing the right thing, consistently.
  • Improved quality of service: our drive to raise standards means your training, compliance support and day-to-day working experience should be smoother, more robust and more reliable.
  • Values-aligned partnership: if your business also cares about people, planet and performance, we’re aligned. The way we work will reflect those priorities.
  • Future-proofing your business: as regulatory, environmental and social expectations rise in the MOT and automotive world, working with a provider that is ahead of the curve benefits you.
  • Stronger community ecosystem: we’re actively part of the B Corp network, meaning richer collaboration, best-practice sharing and access to a wider world of purposeful businesses.

Why This Matters in the MOT & Automotive Sector

The automotive industry is changing fast and expectations around environmental impact, governance and professional standards are rising with it.

Becoming a B Corp means Pro-Tech isn’t just keeping up…
We’re leading the way.

For MOT testers, business owners and AEs, partnering with a B Corp gives you confidence that:

  • Your training provider is responsible and accountable
  • Your compliance support is values-driven, not reactive
  • Your business reputation is strengthened by association
  • Your team is learning from an organisation committed to doing good, not just doing business

It’s a step forward not just for us but for the sector as a whole.

What Happens Next?

Now that certification is in place, you’ll see more from us around:

  • Our impact areas and goals
  • Our continuous improvement plans
  • How we support community and sector-wide development
  • How sustainability and ethical practice influence our training and guidance
  • How you can benefit from the wider B Corp network

This is the start of a long-term commitment and we’re excited to bring you along with us.
