Stonebridge Associated Colleges is a team of bright and motivated people dedicated to helping learners fulfil their potential and meet their career goals. Set up in 1995, Stonebridge Associated Colleges was initially intended to help people qualify in complementary therapies, such as reflexology and aromatherapy. Gradually, it moved towards more mainstream practices such as teaching, nursing, healthcare, business, nutrition and beauty. Some of the students we helped went on to study Marine Biology at university. Others have chosen teaching assistant courses that have landed them an early promotion. As their needs diversified, so did our curriculum. Two decades later the college became a leading name in the world of further education. Today, Stonebridge Associated Colleges has training facilities in Bude and Birmingham for a few of our vocational courses where our experienced tutors bring a hands-on approach to the teaching. However, there are over 650 online courses that can be completed remotely from anywhere in the world. With 50,000 students currently enrolled, the college is one of the largest distance learning suppliers in the UK. A dedicated support team is also on hand to address student questions regarding enrolment, finances and guidance on the best-suited courses for you. Today we are proud to be part of The Stonebridge Group, a number of companies operating in the distance learning field for both government-subsidised and commercially-funded qualifications.

Steph hated school and couldn’t wait to leave. After a number of jobs that she didn’t enjoy, she returned to further then higher education and (ironically) became a teacher. Steph taught in secondary and further education as a business and economics teacher amongst other subjects. She was then offered a role within Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council Education Directorate managing the EOTAS (Education other than at school) service. A diversion from teaching to managing teachers and other support staff for 11 years, Steph decided to take the plunge and set up her own education company. Almost 5 years on, she runs a successful business employing over 100 staff. Having previously been a supply teacher, she understands the role and empathises with how overwhelming it can be for staff going into different schools sometimes on a daily basis. She is a totally hand’s on, fully supportive manager who will go out of her way to ensure all staff and schools are looked after. Jacob Blackmore OPERATIONS MANAGER Jacob originally joined the company in 2016, working as a part-time Teaching Assistant alongside his studies.
