Employers
A successful partnership can drive innovation and exchange best practices.
Our partners
We work with many partners across Medway to deliver courses and learning programmes. Collaboration is key to ensuring that people from all walks of life and communities have access to opportunities to improve their lives through learning and to achieve their potential. Our partnerships help us to realise those goals. This is something we're very proud of.
Your involvement in our learners' education is important. There are many ways that you can give them support and help them to develop.
These include:
- telling us about your capacity for industry placements and work experience as soon as you can
- setting virtual projects where placements may not be possible
- taking part in our virtual open events and helping to attract the next generation of talent to your sector
- mentoring students and offering one to one guidance
- joining online classes and teaching sessions or coming into college and sitting in on a class
- creating inspirational videos to encourage our learners or promote the area of learning that relates to your business.

Hire an apprentice
