Partnership agreement with University of East London
Malvern International Plc, the global learning and skills
development partner, is pleased to announce a partnership agreement
with the University of East London ('UEL') which will see Malvern
established as an embedded college within UEL, delivering
pre-sessional foundation and English language courses for
international students at both Degree and Masters levels.
The courses will develop the students' English language skills
and prepare them academically for university-level study; initially
at undergraduate level but with pre-Master's programmes due to come
on stream in 2019.
Students taking the pathway course will be fully enrolled as UEL
students, giving them the benefit of on-campus accommodation and
access to all University facilities and services.
In addition to the full foundation course, Malvern and UEL are
working together to provide flexible-duration ESL (English as a
Second Language) courses for pre-undergraduate and pre-Master's
students.
The new partnership between UEL and Malvern House is expected to
benefit both colleges, acting as an enhanced distributor of Malvern
courses, whilst giving UEL improved access to student markets in
South East Asia, where Malvern is a well-known and trusted
brand.
Commenting on the UEL partnership, Sam Malafeh, Chief Executive
Officer at Malvern, said:
"This partnership with University of East London is a good
example of the collaborations being targeted by the Group in
pursuit of its growth strategy, giving both parties complementary
benefits.
"These pathway courses will enable international students to
reach their goal of enrolling on a University degree. It will
achieve this by delivering high quality English language support
and a carefully crafted International Foundation Programme. This
tailored support is expected to benefit over 4,000 students in the
next 10 years. It will also enable Malvern to establish a strong
long term partnership with UEL in London, contributing to Malvern's
strategic objective of being regarded as a Centre of
Excellence."
