In addition to the consultancy and training work handled in-house (see People), IE Partners also works with a team of specialist, experienced international freelance consultants, all of whom are well-known to IE Partners over many years of collaborative working: between us we offer our education, consultancy, training and research expertise in a range of international and regional languages including French, German, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian and Kiswahili.
IE Partners has also developed comprehensive links with experienced national consultants in many countries and these are also regularly made available to clients in consultancy, research and training assignments. IE Partners currently has resident representatives in Central Asia, the Caucasus and Central Africa (see People).
IE Partners also provides training, research and advisory services to commercial clients, building on our unique combination of industry experience and a deep understanding of international development issues in education worldwide.
