Academic partnerships


We have an impressive portfolio of partners with a total of 90 around the world. Our ambitious plans to significantly increase our partnership activities include targeting the UK, Europe, Asia and Middle East markets with a strong focus on our core academic areas: digital technology, health and education, and the arts and creative industries.


Over the past year, we focused our efforts on growing our existing partnerships to ensure we have shared values to prioritise our students – their learning experience, their achievements and their employment prospects. It’s important to us to develop strategic partnerships that enable more students around the world to access higher education and embark on fulfilling careers.


With the support of our partners – both private and public – we have programmes running in 22 countries around the world. Together we offer a mix of franchised, validated, joint and distance learning programmes and almost half of our students are studying at one of our three overseas campuses – in Dubai, Mauritius and Malta – or with one of our international partners.


To best meet the needs of employers, we are increasingly working with the FE sector. We have established a strategic partnership with Capital City College Group (CCCG). CCCG is made up of three large FE colleges (City and Islington College, Westminster Kingsway College, and the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London), and a specific CCCG training arm that functions as a private provider. The aim is to create progression agreements to allow learners to progress seamlessly through the levels. The full range of provision has been mapped and we are both now looking at how we can streamline pathways and ensure progression routes through to higher level skills across different subject areas, particularly in public services. Our recent work with CCCG has included research with employers in the creative industries investigating innovative ways to meet their needs through degree apprenticeships. We also have scope to develop progression pathways overseas due to our transnational education provision.
