Our services for institutions working with agents

We provide a number of products and services for UK education providers wishing to use education agents as part of their international student recruitment strategies.


Agent seminars
All appropriately accredited institutions are able to attend agent-run promotion seminars that we provide throughout the year.


Agent Zone
UK institutions can search the Education UK website Agent Zone for agents in specific country markets. In countries that have not launched the Agent Zone, a list of agents is often kept as reference material.


Education UK exhibitions
Institutions can participate in one of the many Education UK exhibitions and promotional events (over 60 each year), many of which incorporate agent networking opportunities and include agent counsellor training.


Inward visits
We tailor visits for agents to visit and familiarise themselves with UK institutions, providing both promotional and networking opportunities


Training workshops
We regularly run professional development training courses for institutions using agents in recruiting international students. These include advice on: selecting and managing agents; understanding the wide and diverse markets; developing effective agreements; and maintaining effective agent-institution relationships.


Boarding schools agents listings
As part of the package of Education UK Partnership services for boarding schools, we provide listings of agents in key markets that are currently engaged in, or interested in, representing UK boarding schools.
