Case studies
Working with business
Here at Middlesex University we have worked with many businesses and helped their employees enhance their skills and increase productivity and efficiency. Below are some examples of the businesses we have worked with and how we have helped them.
The Royal Mail
Royal Mail wanted a programme that would make managers more proficient, enabling them to manage in different styles, delegate work effectively and maximise productivity. So Middlesex worked in partnership with Royal Mail to develop a higher education award – the Higher Education Certificate in Management Practice. For more details, take a look at how Middlesex helped deliver a training programme for Royal Mail.
Halifax
The bank identified an opportunity to develop an accredited training programme, which is being taken by all of its 600 plus Branch Managers, 300 Local Directors and 32 in-company Training Managers. As part of this programme, these employees have the opportunity to achieve an external diploma or postgraduate certificate with Middlesex University.

The Environment Agency
The Agency approached Middlesex because the University has expert individuals with knowledge in flood defence. Middlesex's Flood Hazard Research Centre and the Environment Agency worked together to create a course that would provide a standardised approach for inspectors to check flood defences.

Lloyds Maritime Academy
Lloyd's Maritime Academy wanted to create an online MBA course in Shipping and Logistics. The group decided to work with Middlesex to create the course because of the University's expertise and capability to deliver the prestigious award online.
