Are You Considering Selling or Taking Investment?

At the National Skills Agency, we work with clients across Apprenticeships, Training, and Awarding who are looking to expand through acquisitions—both full and partial. If you're starting to think about an exit or seeking investment, we have a number of active buyers and investors ready to support your next steps.

We are currently looking for:

• Small IT Apprenticeship Providers: To help a commercial provider enter the market.
• Mid-sized Awarding Organisations: Preferably with engineering or technical qualifications. Our client is dynamic, growing fast, and supported by a strong management team.
• Small Awarding Organisations: With 40+ qualifications, looking to become part of a larger AO with robust infrastructure.
• Independent Training Providers (West Midlands, Manchester, Bristol, or London): Ideally with £5m+ in sales and solid profit margins. Our client offers investment, infrastructure, and a clear exit strategy.
• Employability/Skills Providers: Preferably in the Midlands or North, with bootcamps, AEB direct contracts, or employability contracts.
• Finance-Oriented Training Providers: Large, well-funded international provider seeking healthy profit-generating businesses.
• Childcare, Construction, or STEM Providers: With a minimum of £300k net profit.
• Small EPAOs: Across various sectors.

We also have clients with a flexible approach, open to acquisition targets of varying sizes, sectors, and infrastructure.

If you're thinking about exiting or securing investment in the near future, let’s have an informal chat to explore what’s possible for you and your team.
