Partnerships: Key 2025 updates

We’re getting ready for spring course launches with our partner colleges. Supporting our partners is at the heart of what we do, with our teams on-hand to assist with everything from operational planning to marketing and employer engagement. Here’s how we collaborate to bring Online and On Campus courses and apprenticeships to life. 

Curriculum and delivery

Our team includes in-house passionate subject specialists with extensive experience in further education. They act as a valuable sounding board for your team with advice on how to deliver specific concepts, understanding analytics and assessing learner progress. 

When new learner cohorts start, our curriculum and delivery support ensures everything runs seamlessly and that challenges are quickly addressed. Additionally, our administrative support provides partners with everything they need year-round – from welcome packs to technical assistance for the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). 

Throughout 2025 we will be offering unlimited tutor and manager training as part of our service to our partners, including our 2024/25 series of guest speaker sessions. 

Marketing and admissions

Our marketing team supports our partner colleges to boost applications and enrolments onto Online and On Campus courses. We offer funding for paid ads that drive prospective learners to course pages, and provide college-branded fliers for mailshots and open events.

Central to our marketing and admissions support is free access to our Partner Hub. For marketing teams, the Hub offers a range of resources, including course copy and promotional assets. Additionally, the team meets with admissions staff to provide them with logins to the Mindful Education Partner Hub, where they can access our Product Awareness workshop and gain insights on how to guide prospective Online and On Campus learners. 

Engaging with employers

Our Employer Engagement team connects businesses and education providers, ensuring training meets real-world needs. They develop tailored training strategies for employers and match them with the right college partner.

To support college employer engagement teams, we provide a variety of valuable resources, including paid online advertising, provider-branded videos, flyers and website assets for employer outreach.

Additionally, we offer unlimited bid writing planning and support, as well as product awareness training. This approach enables both our team and our partner teams to build stronger connections with businesses. 

Driving lasting impact

Our collaborative approach is designed to empower our college partners. Together, we’re building enduring partnerships that make a real difference to learners, educators and businesses.
