FE Associates

Dr. Lindsay – Pamphilon CEO & Principal – East Surrey College

“FEA designed an outstanding leadership and management programme for East Surrey College. They tailored the content to our specific needs, blending individual and team activities perfectly. Their support helped us create new college values and a leadership charter. Excellent delivery, highly recommended!”

Sallyanne Pearson – Director of Governance – Bishop Burton College

“As a Director of Governance, I found the communication, advice and support received from FE Associates during its recruitment search for our next Principal and Chief Executive to be really valuable. As a believer that ‘detail matters’, I cannot fault the team who answered each and every query I raised in recognition of the role all governance professionals have in supporting the Corporation and its members as well as the college as a whole.”
