Solent signs partnership with Brockenhurst
30 January 2012
Southampton Solent University has kicked-off 2012 by celebrating the signing of its sixth partnership accord with Brockenhurst College.
The Accord was signed on Wednesday 11 January and formally recognises and celebrates the close ties that exist between the two institutions.
Through the Partnership Accord, both Solent and Brockenhurst College have agreed an annual action plan that includes taster visits, master classes and innovative progression support activities.

Dr. Jamie Mackay, Southampton Solent University's Partnership Development Manager, said: “This partnership works enables us to continue to be flexible and ensure our provision is suitable and desirable for incoming students and importantly, also meet skills demands from employers.”
