Our Mission

Equipping global partners to deliver university access programmes for disadvantaged students

How we work to support young people and educators

AccessEd was started in 2017 and was established to share our expertise and to promote access to higher education for young people from under-served backgrounds around the world.

We work in four key ways:

• • As a capacity-building and co-design partner charity that collaborates with global education entrepreneurs on creating a high-impact university access programme for under-represented young people in their region or country (GrowUni)
    
    
  • Collaborating with universities and institutions to deliver academically robust subject, curriculum and guidance materials that can help increase participation in higher education through targeted online learning or teacher programmes (ReachUni)
•  
  • Offering unique professional development workshops to university students and post-graduates to build their skills for the future (LeadUni)
    
    
  • Working with corporates on school or university programmes that marry our expertise of working with higher education pathways and researchers with 21st-century skills preparation to bridge the gap for more young people in key sectors. (Innovation Projects)
