Our education managers in-country are dedicated to supporting you. For further details on specific services and market advice for a particular country, please contact the Partnership liaison for that country.

Please note that as part of our on-going commitment to improving the level of service that we offer to our members, we are currently reviewing the existing service provision.

Due to the nature of the supply of these services, you may need to account for UK VAT under the normal reverse charging mechanism rules for supply of services.

Please see the HM Revenue and Customs website for further details.

The following services supplied by our overseas partners:

Education market information, research and intelligence (EMI)

			Market intelligence reports (for example on TNE).
			Invitations to attend market briefings to give you on-the-ground market intelligence from our in-country education managers.

			The opportunity to book individual appointments at the annual Partnership Conference with experts from overseas.

Exhibitions, events and missions
Overseas exhibitions are a valuable tool for recruitment. We organise over 50 education exhibitions around the world each year. From small, focused events, to large-scale exhibitions attracting over 30,000 visitors, the exhibitions provide a platform for you to promote your courses to prospective students and build links with local education providers. As a Partnership member, you pay 50 per cent less than non-members and receive priority booking.

Please note - where exhibitions take place in the UK, these events will be organised by the Education UK Partnership team in Manchester and UK VAT will be charged. This will of course adjust the % of your Partnership membership charges where UK VAT will be charged.  

You can receive support and advice when arranging a visit, including local contacts, venue, accommodation and transport, translations and interpreters. You can also access a range of paid-for services, to manage a programme for your institution, for example student interviews or alumni events.

Professional development and training
We offer a range of high quality yet affordable short courses and workshops which have been tailored to the specific needs of international educational marketing and recruitment professionals. Our training programmes are led by internationally-renowned specialists who have extensive experience of working in both the public and private sectors.

Profile and promotion
One of the major challenges which all educational institutions and organisations face in the 21st Century is the ability to engage with students in a relevant and meaningful way. For many, the virtual communication environment has come to occupy a position of unparalleled importance, often at the expense of more traditional channels. On-line research is now a major part of the student decision-making process.

With the Education UK websites attracting over one million visitors a month, a profile page is a great way to promote your institution. As a Partnership member, you receive a discount on a profile page to sell your benefits with inspiring copy and images, while also providing a one-stop-shop for students to find out all the information that they need.

For further impact, you can also access a range of other opportunities:

			profiling and promotional opportunities in local country publications
			commissioned mailings
			UK inward visits.

Please note that there may be an additional charge for these services.

Relationship management and communications

			Invitation to the annual Partnership Conference and regional meetings, exclusively for UK schools, colleges and universities that are members of the Partnership, where you can gain knowledge of global issues and market trends.
			You will receive a monthly Partnership newsletter keeping you updated on news and market opportunities.
			Invitations to attend seminars and workshops on global market developments.
