Overview
Built for talent
Sponsoring an employee with University of the Built Environment means that you are enabling them to gain an accredited qualification from a highly reputable university while, at the same time, investing in the growth of your business.
The flexible nature of the University’s online learning model provides employees with the ability to study whilst working, meaning that they can translate academic theory into practice in the workplace. With the student’s permission, we can also keep you updated on their academic progress, allowing you to provide relevant assistance to support their studies.
