After working together to deliver high-quality work-based training for over several years, Eastleigh College and premium tea brand Twinings have expanded into apprenticeship training and launched TEA – the Twinings Eastleigh Academy.
The new 'TEA' training academy is designed to produce the next generation of highly skilled team members who will help shape the business's future, and keep Twinings as the number one tea manufacturer in the UK. It also aims to develop current staff into experts within their field.
Learners will be trained at Eastleigh College on a day-release basis, with access to all of our industry-leading facilities. The academy will also develop to encompass work-specific training opportunities for existing staff at Twinings.
The activity falls in line with the Government’s agenda to develop skilled workforces through 3 million new Apprenticeship starts by 2020. As one of the largest providers of work-based training in the UK and with over 50 years’ experience, Eastleigh College is proven to deliver exceptional training for businesses like Twinings, and operates several long-standing partnerships with employers in the region.

Eastleigh College is delighted to announce the appointment of Paul Cox as its next Chief Executive and Principal, following the retirement of Dr Jan Edrich in September 2020.
Learners, staff, governors and representatives from business and industry joined together to celebrate at Eastleigh College’s annual awards ceremony at Eastleigh Football Stadium. The annual event, which was organised by our Event Management students, recognised the talents of staff, students and employers for their exceptional work during the last academic year.
