Become an HE/FE associate member

English UK is the association of English language teaching (ELT) centres in the United Kingdom. 

We offer associate membership to UK higher and further education providers that teach English language courses for international students. Associate members do not need to be accredited by Accreditation UK.

Associate membership gives college and university language centres access to UK ELT market intelligence and the benefits of being part of our ELT community.

Associate member requirements

Associate members do not need to be accredited by Accreditation UK.

You'll need to be able to share data about the ELT students you teach annually, which will help make our student statistics reports more robust. This data will be anonymous and shared only with our data insight partner.

In addition, you can also choose to share your quarterly data. You'll then receive in-depth data reports every three months.

Benefits for HE/FE associate members

  • Access to English UK student statistics​ reports
  • Access to market reports on key ELT student source markets
  • One half-price place at the annual English UK Members' Conference
  • Monthly member news from English UK
  • Invite to monthly member online Q&A and coffee morning

What's not included?

Our associate membership is a bit different to our full English UK centre membership. Associate members don't get the same member discounts and they don't have voting rights at our AGM.
