Partnerships for Change have been instrumental in shaping and implementing the University of Bedfordshire’s recruitment policy. This has resulted in buoyant recruitment figures.
David Pears
Senior Lecturer, University of Bedfordshire
For me to give advice to my students regarding their future is very important because nobody did the same for me when I was of their age and I needed it. Now, many well-trained students in the field of English have the chance of their lives to go and study in England in order to have a better future. Lal offers professional assistance which meets the students’ needs. With his help a student has nothing else to do but to concentrate on their studies. The rest is Partnerships for Change!

Simone Educational Center, Romania
Partnerships for Change have influenced thousands of students, inspiring them to see a bright future of a career. Lal is probably one of the very few people in the UK or internationally to have had such an effect on so many to better the quality of their lives. Through Lal’s influence and the new path through education individuals have chosen, it gives them the chance to try to be what they could dream of being.
