Do You Need To Dig Deep?
Further Education & Apprenticeships Marketing
STITCH Ltd help you to attract, engage and retain learners.
Whether you’re a College, Training Provider or Employer with an Apprenticeship programme, we work with you to understand your real learner experience vs the brand promise you’re making.
Established in 2011 by ex-Training Provider Head of Marketing, Kate Carney, STITCH continue to work with clients including QA, Exemplas, Interserve, East Kent College Group, East Sussex College and more.

Marketing
We help clients tell powerful stories and position themselves for success. From attracting learners, to staff engagement, our marketing and communications campaigns keep you memorable and support your attraction strategies.

Research
Does the learner experience what you want them to? Do you know how you want learners to feel being on your programmes? Understanding what learners need, expect or experience in reality is very powerful. Focus groups, interviews, surveys and more help you to unearth real insight and use this as a foundation to progress.

Training
From idea generation to ‘how to’ complete your own research programme we offer a range of training solutions to help you and your colleagues upskill and engage together.
