Our industry collaborations
Employer-education relationships are essential to provide students with the skills they need to enter the workplace. BTEC Higher Nationals are rooted in industry - our partnerships with employers and professional organisations ensure our students can progress into employment or further study.
These collaborations don't just advance our qualification development but also ensure that both employers and students benefit from workforce skills fit for the future.
