Partnerships


Corporate partnerships


We work closely with local, regional and national employers to understand and respond to skills needs through the West London Alliance, London First, the CBI and other networks and collaborations. We continue to offer bespoke work-based training to staff at partner businesses including BT, Mitsubishi Electric, Royal Mail, SAP and Worldpay.


In the last year alone, we hosted a range high profile events for businesses including the Business to Business (B2B) workshops that introduced GDPR and the SME Boost sessions in partnership with NatWest and Santander. In autumn 2017, we published a further three business research reports with the British Chambers of Commerce and Industry looking at the impact of the National Living wage, Pensions and the Apprenticeship Levy.


A significant development in the sector since April 2017 has been the introduction of the Apprenticeship Levy and a change to the Apprenticeship funding system. Following this, we began work with employers in a variety of sectors on the development of Degree Apprenticeships. These allow partner employees to study with us at either an undergraduate or postgraduate level, and develop the skills they need for their positions. The Confederation of British Industry and the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry have been valued supporters of our work and help increase the visibility of our developments. Growing this area of work has involved strengthening existing relationships with employers to best meet their needs.


The uniqueness of Middlesex University is their willingness and initiative in going out to business rather than waiting


for business to go to them. Subhash Thakrar, Deputy President, London Chamber of Commerce and Industry


By working with the Corporate Engagement Team, we have been able to break down barriers


and achieve real sector impact. Dr Phil Squire, CEO, Consalia
