Further and higher education
FURTHER AND HIGHER EDUCATION
From UK to New Zealand, China to United Arab Emirates, Poland to Paraguay, our education consultants travel around the globe to meet with educators, investors, operators and philanthropists to scout out markets. We have led multiple on-site engagements in various educational segments: from further to higher education. Among our specialties is English language training, transnational education (TNE) and education technology (edtech).
We combine primary research with advanced analytics and strategy consulting to help clients realise growth opportunities in new sectors and geographical areas, including untapped developing countries.
We help educational systems and providers to improve outcomes for millions of students globally.
We help higher education institutions, foundations, non-profits, and corporations to achieve rapid gains in student learning and completion outcomes.
We have highly experienced consultants working on education projects, and have completed many large projects in a number of countries over the past 10 years. Our teams include former teachers, institutional leaders, researchers, and policy makers. We work at local, regional, and national levels of education.
Supporting higher education institutions
We help colleges, universities and research institutions to design and implement digital strategies, strengthen teaching and research, reduce operating costs, and improve graduation rates. In the past decade our work with more than 20 institutions has affected the lives of thousands of students. Examples include:
- Developing a world-leading online learning platform to provide healthcare, and business degree programs;
- Advising three universities in Poland on reshaping their strategic priorities in cosmetology, business, and education, and redesigning their operations,
- Delivering “education to employment” solutions;
We collaborate with employers, education providers, and foundations to help students make a seamless transition from education to work. Our goal is twofold: to build young people’s job readiness, while meeting employers’ talent needs. Since 2009 we have helped improve the job prospects of a large number of students.
Harnessing educational technology
We work with public, private, and social institutions to apply innovative digital tools to revolutionise teaching and learning, both inside and outside the classroom.
- Supporting education systems with strategies to scale up personalised learning in the classroom and are on course to target 50,000 students by 2022;
- Advising education providers on developing online courses to prepare job seekers for entry-level positions, targeting 300,000 learners by the end of 2022;
Advancing knowledge
To enhance our client service, we invest in developing our own tools and benchmarks, including personalised diagnostic toolkits, and case library on education to employment solutions.
