Partner with us

What does partnering with us look like?

In short – whatever you want it to.

At Eastern Education Group, our partnerships take on many different forms, but one thing is always the same – each partnership is tailored exclusively to your needs and the challenges we aim to solve together.

We’re proud to have collaborated with thousands of businesses and other stakeholders at both leadership and grassroots level; working closely with local community partners to share resources, create opportunities, and drive positive economic change.

This could look like:

  • Work experience and industry placements between our students and local employers
  • Designing bespoke courses and training programmes to fill staffing and skills gaps for local businesses
  • Working with employers to jointly deliver work-led training programmes through shared funding
  • Sponsorship opportunities (of classrooms or awards, donating kit or learning resources, etc)
  • Formal partnerships and patron memberships, such as our work with the Suffolk and Cambridgeshire Chambers of Commerce, Eastern Powerhouse, and Cambridge Ahead  
  • Driving growth within our communities through business, industry, local and regional government partnerships, as well as other stakeholders such as Citizens Advice, the Department for Work and Pensions, the Federation of Small Businesses, MENTA, West Suffolk Hospital, and many more
  • Partnering with employers to deliver masterclasses, workplace tours and guest speaker sessions to give our students first-hand sector insights
  • Forming advisory groups with employers to co-create, co-design, and co-deliver training materials to prepare the next generation of the workforce
  • Engaging inspirational speakers to deliver free lectures for the local community as part of our popular Edmund’s Open Lecture Series 

Your business, your way 

There are no two partnerships the same – we create a bespoke service designed around the individual needs of each partner and the skills they require to meet their strategic goals. 

To kick things off, our business development team will carry out an organisational training needs analysis and sit down with you to talk about all the options available, how we can work together, and how we can future-proof your business with a workforce trained to deliver the specific skills you’ll need as you grow.

If you’ve got the ambition, we’ll help you to build the strategy around it. We’re already working with over 1,600 businesses in the Eastern region – will yours be next?
