What is the Corporate Partnership Programme?

We want to build a mutually beneficial, long-term relationship with reputable employers in Jersey through our Corporate Partnership Programme.

Our Corporate Partners will be part of an elite group spanning a range of financial services and industry sectors. In spite of this diversity, they share a commitment to investing in the skills of their workforce and thus of Jersey as it competes in a global knowledge economy. In so doing, our Corporate Partners create value both for their organisations and the community.

Membership of the Corporate Partnership Programme is for a one year renewable term.

Benefits for Corporate Partners

Membership of the Corporate Partnership Programme gives your company an opportunity to demonstrate its commitment to the academic excellence that we hope will become synonymous with the Jersey International
Business School.

A key aspect of membership is a managed relationship that ensures you get individual attention from us at all times. This means that your company gets a sound return on its investment and we get the benefit of your experience and vision.

Our Corporate Partners enjoy:

• A 15% discount on the cost of all short courses and Certificated Awareness Programmes (rising to 25% discount for 5 or more bookings made at the same time, in any combination)
• A 10% discount on all Faculty of Leadership & Management programmes
• A 5% discount on the cost of all Professional Qualifications.*
• One complimentary invitation to the JIBS Annual Leadership Forum (see page 144)
• One complimentary invitation to the JIBS Annual HR Forum (see page 146)
• Increased profile resulting from identification on the JIBS website and literature as a Corporate Partner
• Approved usage of the JIBS Corporate Partner logo
• Discounted use of Business School training facilities for in-house training or strategy events

*In the case of STEP qualifications the 5% discount is applicable subject to a minimum of 3 STEP Programme delegates registering for the same paper at the same time.

Benefits for JIBS

The success of JIBS will be measured by reference to overall student numbers and the number of students who are awarded professional qualifications.

JIBS will benefit as follows:

• From the input and guidance provided by employers to its Prospectus.
• From the active participation of Corporate Partners in its alumni and faculty.
• From the use of the annual Corporate Partner fee to subsidise the JIBS Student Bursary Scheme*. A minimum of two bursaries will be offered initially. The actual number of bursaries will depend on the number of Corporate Partners.

*The JIBS Student Bursaries will be awarded to applicants wishing to pursue a course of professional study but whose personal financial circumstances prevent them from doing so.

Cost of Corporate Membership Programme

In the interest of fairness we recognise that the discounts available through the Corporate Partnership Programme will in real terms potentially be of greater value to organisations with larger numbers of employees. The annual cost of membership of the Programme  is therefore tiered as follows:

Small businesses
(1–24 employees) – £500

Medium businesses
(25–100 employees) – £1000

Large businesses
(101+ employees) – £1500

To preserve the confidentiality of employee numbers, Corporate Partners will not be publicly identified as small, medium or large. All Corporate Partners will receive equal profile in JIBS literature and online.
