Testimonials
In September 2017, the Noble Solutions team approached us to present an opportunity to collaborate with UK universities within their network to deliver British qualifications in Colombo. As IDM is the pioneer institution in Sri Lanka cooperating with UK education bodies such as Pearson, and NCC, we are well experienced on this structure of collaboration. Although we have been in partnership with UK universities for number of years via the connection with NCC, we were seeking for a mid-ranked university to diversify our programmes range and deliver in our newly built 10-storey campus.
Noble Solutions came in at the right time and assisted us to successfully partner with University of Gloucestershire. During the process of partnership development, Noble Solutions was able to give recommendations/suggestions and to resolve any concerns between IDM and University of Gloucestershire. I am happy with their service, working attitude, and undoubtedly recommend Noble Solutions.

In 2017, Strategy First University (SFU) started to work with Noble Solutions to offer Business top-up degree in Yangon, Myanmar. Throughout the process, Michael, the director of Noble Solutions and his team had been very helpful and informative. Not only working online, they also came to campus a few times along with the validation team to support us. At the same time, they are always checking up on the progress of the partnership we were trying to get. As of 2018, we officially started to offer one of the most high-ranked Business top-up programme, B.A. (Hons) Business Management from Oxford Brookes University in Yangon, Myanmar.
In March 2017 I met with Michael Noble of Noble Solutions to discuss the possibility of them identifying possible partners for us in the SE Asian region. Now as of 2021, we have approved partnerships for franchise delivery in Bangladesh, Vietnam & Sri Lanka. The key to the speed of these were the selection of appropriate partners. The partners Noble Solutions proposed fitted well with our own mission and values and so working together and aligning processes was relatively painless. The successful choice of partners is testament to the attention paid to our needs and aspirations in the earliest conversations.
The University of Gloucestershire originally engaged the services of Noble Solutions in April 2015. The scope of the project was for Noble Solutions to identify universities in Vietnam that had the capacity to enter into long-term franchise orientated partnerships, leading to the deliverance of University of Gloucestershire awards in-country.
Throughout the project, Michael and his colleagues were responsible for liaising with the local universities to deliver a business case, gather the necessary due diligence documentation and to organise the logistics of University of Gloucestershire delegation visits to the prospective partners.
Following two successful projects in Vietnam, the University expanded our work with Noble Solutions to develop similar projects in Myanmar and Sri Lanka. Our relationship with Noble Solutions has afforded us the opportunity to efficiently analyse the realistic potential of TNE projects without having to dedicate major resources at an early stage of due diligence process.

Noble Solutions approached GUSTO International College in May 2016, with an opportunity to develop a TNE partnership with the University of Gloucestershire (UOG) in the UK. Focused on improving the quality of education for our students, we decided to explore the partnership which was successfully developed in just 5 months, resulting in an MOA signing in Gloucestershire in October 2016.
Michael and his team worked alongside GUSTO to gather and process all academic, financial and institutional due diligence documentation that was required by UOG to approve the partnership, and later assisted us to finalise the partnership contract. Following this, Noble Solutions assisted us with the initial public launch of the partnership in the UK and Myanmar. I'm happy to recommend the services of Noble Solutions to Southeast Asian institutions that are seeking to develop TNE partnerships with UK universities.

Since early 2016, the University of Economics & Finance (UEF) has been in contact with Noble Solutions with the view of developing a partnership with a UK institution to deliver UK qualifications in HCMC, Vietnam.
Within a short period of time, we were presented with the option to work with the University of Gloucestershire (UOG).
