Basically we’re here to open doors for you!
Individual organisations in the vocational education sector often find it difficult to make contact with high level decision makers or to put together comprehensive bids for forthcoming tenders and projects, and so miss out on opportunities to develop their business overseas.
TVET UK is a membership organisation, established in 2007 to make sure that UK providers and suppliers were represented and promoted at the highest levels worldwide, and so get the recognition and the business that they deserve. Since then, TVET UK has developed mutually beneficial relationships with government ministers, educational agencies and training providers in a number of countries where there are significant opportunities to build business for its members.
TVET UK provides international organisations with a single route to the cream of the UK’s vocational sector. It works with clients to identify genuine commercial opportunities and then brings together with appropriately experienced suppliers through trade missions and inward delegations or consortia pitching for tenders.
