Corporate Responsibility

 

Charity Work

We have an ongoing programme of donating to good causes and charities. We encourage our colleagues to do the same and get involved in fundraising activities. We support our students by advertising and sharing their fundraising stories and successes. To help facilitate this, we grant all of our colleagues the opportunity to take one day of paid leave per annum to dedicate to charity fundraising.

 

Equality of opportunity

We are committed to never discriminating against age, ethnicity, gender, sexuality or disability. We want our workforce to reflect the diversity of our customers. Where possible, we operate a flexible working policy (including homeworking) to facilitate the needs of our colleagues. We also invest in the continual training of our staff to ensure our values and policies are always embedded throughout the company.

 

Open and Honest Communications

We are happy publish statistics measuring our corporate and social responsibility progress. This includes a breakdown of employees by gender and ethnicity; energy use; social investment; health and safety and expenditure on travel.

 

The Environment

We continually strive to be more energy efficient and to reduce our impact on the environment. This includes a commitment to recycling and waste management; utilisation of homeworking and web conferencing to reduce travel.

 

Value for money

We continually monitor the market to ensure that our prices remain competitive, and we always strive to offer the best value for money. We ask for and review feedback from students at every event to ensure we are providing an excellent service.
