Pathway provider North Consortium UK (NCUK) has expanded its programmes into India for the first time in its 25 year history, after signing an agreement with the Delhi based training arm of Indian student consultancy The Chopras. This agreement is the first of NCUK's three new market entries coming to fruition in 2014.
The NCUK consortium has launched an International Foundation Year (IFY) in Colombia, its first venture in Latin America. Students who complete the pathway programme delivered at St Peter’s International College in Bogotá will be able to continue onto one of the 11 universities that make up the northern consortium of UK HE.
LSBF has partnered with pathway provider North Consortium UK to offer English and academic preparation courses at its London campus. The collaboration will see LSBF's pathway portfolio grow to include programmes that feed into other institutions around the UK.
The NCUK consortium is to launch a new university pathway programme in Rivers State, Nigeria. The International Foundation Year (IFY), which is recognised by 25 British universities, will be run at the Brookstone School in Port Harcourt.
