Business Training was formed in 1974 to provide training in Business English for those seeking to improve their job prospects. The vision was to create home study courses that provided vocational training that was practical and would benefit students in their working life. Since that time we have expanded our range of subjects and become a leading provider of home study courses. As part of a group of distance learning colleges, including The Writers Bureau and STT, we have successfully trained hundreds of thousands of students worldwide. We use our substantial knowledge and experience in this field to offer high quality courses and tuition. The skills we teach have delivered life-changing results for many of our students. We are constantly creating new courses under the expert guidance of our Director of Studies – Diana Nadin – and her team of professional writers and tutors. We are also committed to maintaining and improving the quality of our existing courses. This is to ensure that the most up-to-date information is available to you. Our aim is: To help you acquire effective training in the subject of your choice. To provide an overall training and tuition service which offers you excellent value for money. To have a satisfied body of students who will continue to spread our good name and reputation. Our commitment to our students, the use of new technologies and our expertise in distance learning allow us to offer effective, convenient training that is also excellent value for money. Business Training is also a member of The European Association of Distance Learning. The association’s objectives include the promotion of professional and ethical standards in distance education and the protection of students’ interests.

The UKRLP allows providers to update their information in one place and share this across agencies such as the Skills Funding Agency, the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and UCAS. Since provider registration opened on 1st August 2005, the UKRLP has grown to over 30,000 providers.

This is the unique identifier used to share information with the UKRLP partner agencies.

British Society For Middle Eastern Studies

british society for middle eastern studies

London

Our Aims To encourage and promote interest and study of the Middle Eastern cultural region from the end of classical antiquity to the present day in particular but not exclusively through the dissemination of information and by the encouragement of co-operation amongst persons concerned with the scholarly study of the region. Statement of Purpose Founded in 1973, BRISMES provides a forum for educators and researchers in Middle East Studies. Membership is open to all regardless of nationality or country of residence. We work to promote interest in Middle East Studies and to raise awareness of the region and how it is connected to other parts of the world, including the UK. Middle East Studies is a diverse field, which encompasses all the humanities and social sciences and reaches from the present back to classical antiquity. The long history of our field of study has made us particularly aware of the connections between knowledge and power. We see connections between research, education, teaching and fundamental questions of social change. We do not believe that research and education should be divorced from the wider social and political context nor that it should exist to serve elites. We believe that a commitment to promote research and education in Middle East Studies involves a duty to consider the conditions under which knowledge is produced and disseminated, and if necessary, to speak out against power structures and interests that prevent the flourishing of research and education in our field.
