Our links with employers
We have invested more than £122 million in new facilities and have transformed our campuses.
We have strong links with a wide range of employers and work closely with businesses to address challenges, test markets and seize opportunities. Our business services offer bespoke practical solutions across a breadth of industry disciplines. We design and deliver staff training and professional development, and are a leading provider of Knowledge Transfer Partnerships. A number of local employers also take the time to mentor our students to develop our graduates’ employability skills base. In 2008 we won £5.6 million from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) to further our work through a project entitled higherskills@work. Higher Skills are now working with over 1000 businesses nationwide including, Harrods, UPS, RAF and Specsavers. In most cases we deliver degree-based programmes in the workplace and online, giving employers a unique and tailored service. With the formal funding scheme now over, we have launched ‘Degrees at Work’ and continue to innovate the world of work-based learning. anglia.ac.uk/degreesatwork
