Real Challenges. Real Work. Real Learning.
School of WorkLife Student Partnerships bring together an independent learning and professional development company with colleges and universities to create opportunities for students to apply their knowledge, ideas and expertise to defined, real-world challenges.
School of WorkLife is an independent professional development company creating self-coaching learning resources for people navigating working life.
As founder, I’m developing partnerships with colleges and universities around areas where students can contribute their knowledge and fresh perspectives to the development of a growing business.
A real business, with real questions to solve.

Who Could This Work With?
The partnerships could be relevant to students studying:
Marketing | Digital Marketing | Business | Entrepreneurship | Communications | PR | Journalism | Media | Broadcasting | Technology | UX | Product Design | Creative Industries
How Could a Partnership Work?
The format can be flexible depending on the institution, students, course and project.
It could be:
- a defined student project
- a group project or consultancy-style brief
- a module-based project
- a longer-term collaboration between School of WorkLife and an educational institution
The aim is to create a clear brief, meaningful work and a useful outcome for everyone involved.
Where appropriate, and with permission, I would also like to document what emerges from these collaborations — the work, the learning and the experience of working together.
Interested In Exploring a Partnership?
I’m currently looking to connect with colleges, universities and educators interested in developing opportunities for students to work with School of WorkLife.
If you would like to discuss a potential collaboration, I’d be very pleased to hear from you.
