Joining Bedford College Group’s Employer Partnership Scheme

We are delighted to announce that we’ve joined the Bedford College Group’s Employer Partnership Scheme. This collaboration will provide students with first-hand industry experience and strengthen links between education and the security and facilities management sector.

As part of the partnership, we will actively contribute to student learning and career development by sponsoring awards at the upcoming end of year Student Awards, endorsing a course, offering apprenticeships, providing work placements, supporting internships, and facilitating site tours. We will also take part in open evenings, career events, and industry talks to inspire the next generation of professionals.


We have already shown our dedication by sponsoring two Student Awards ceremonies that were held in the Autumn term and welcoming a Level 3 HR apprentice to our business. Our involvement will ensure students gain valuable exposure to real-world industry practices and career pathways.

Qadeer Qureshi, CEO of Aegis Support Services, commented: “Partnering with The Bedford College Group is an exciting opportunity for Aegis. We are passionate about supporting the next generation of professionals, and this scheme allows us to provide students with meaningful experiences that will help shape their future careers. By working together, we can create a strong pipeline of skilled individuals who are ready to enter the workforce with confidence.”

Gina Bubbins, Director of Partnerships at The Bedford College Group, added: “We are excited to have Aegis Support Services on board as an Employer Partner. Their hands-on approach to student engagement will be instrumental in preparing our students for successful careers. By working with key employers, we can bridge the gap between education and industry, ensuring students leave us with the skills and experience they need to thrive.”
