Our Employer Partners
At West Thames College, employer partnerships play a vital role in enriching our curriculum and helping students succeed beyond the classroom. Our employer partners work with us to shape courses, provide industry insights, offer real-world opportunities, and support pathways into work.
These collaborative relationships help ensure our programmes stay relevant, practical, and aligned with the evolving needs of employers — giving students the skills, confidence, and connections they need to thrive. Many partners also contribute by offering work experience placements, expert guest talks, curriculum advice, mock interview sessions and opportunities for students to work on live briefs.
