Developing skills for your organisation

University of Derby Online Learning enables ambitious employees to balance their commitment to work with online study for a UK university qualification. 

Our work-related degrees and vocational qualifications are accredited by professional bodies, so you can be sure that our course content is relevant.  Our specialist online tutors are experts in their respective fields so you’ll benefit from the insight they share with your employee.  And our dedicated online team provides all of the support each student needs to successfully complete his or her course.

Investing in people

You may wish to sponsor an employee who is

  • studying to support an application for promotion
  • acquiring the skills needed in a new role
  • refreshing his or her knowledge after a career break

Your investment will contribute to employee engagement and satisfaction and increase the knowledge and skills available to you.

Please confirm your support

Whether you are funding or part-funding your employee’s tuition fees, please confirm this in writing.  We’ve created a sponsor letter template (Word) which indicates all of the details we need, together with the address to which you should send this information. 

Once we have received your confirmation, we will send you an invoice for your proportion of the fees for the current academic year.  These fees must be paid when your employee enrols on the course for which s/he has been accepted.

Then we’ll need you to confirm your sponsorship every September for each new academic year until your employee completes his or her course.
