Education Partnerships
Expanding your institution’s global footprint through Transnational Education (TNE) or developing your collaborative aspirations in the UK, requires a strategic approach, strong partnerships, and seamless operational implementation. We provide expert consultancy to public and private education institutions, helping them to navigate the complexities of academic partnership delivery within the UK and internationally.
Our belief is that equity is the cornerstone of successful and long-lasting academic partnerships. From the outset, we ensure that all collaborations are built on mutual respect, shared objectives, and fair distribution of resources and responsibilities.
By embedding equity into every stage of our partnership development process, we create sustainable, impactful, and resilient academic collaborations that benefit all, students, faculty, and institutions.
So if you are looking to establish a new partnership or enhance existing ones, our tailored services ensure sustainable and impactful local and global engagement. Listen Consulting has the experience to deliver.
