Services

ED offers three key services: Education for Productivity, ED Insider, and TEO Strategy.

Education for Productivity focuses on lifting workforce productivity through better policy for, and industry input into, tertiary education. We will develop and test our services during February and March 2010.

ED Insider is a Web-based service that gives tertiary education professionals the strategic policy, industry and tertiary education sector information they need about their environment. Trial subscriptions are available now -  find out more.

Our TEO Strategy service provides strategic advice to tertiary education organisations (TEIs, PTEs, OTEPs and ITOs). We will work with up to five TEOs on a long-term basis as a member of a strategy/project team or board. Our focus is on making a long-term contribution to organisations, not writing a one-off report. We welcome enquiries from any TEO – contact us to start the discussion.
