Our Mission
Holmes Education Group has always been a little different. Indeed, our fresh approach to education has driven much of our growth and success over the years. Rather than simply follow industry norms, we focus our energies on raising educational standards and expectations by constantly refining - and often reinventing - the programs and services we offer. Every day we seek to improve upon the status quo, guided by our four underlying business philosophies:
Industry Shapers
Three decades of industry firsts. At Holmes Education Group we're proud to be pioneers of the international student sector. Never content to just follow the crowd, we're nimble, adaptable and highly responsive. We always place deep value on finding smarter ways to drive better outcomes for our students and partners.
Business Smarts
Acumen meets academia. As an independently-owned entrepreneurial group, we're not bound by traditional education thinking. We're a business of passionate education providers who bring an unashamed savvy to everything we do, applying industry-leading commercial smarts to drive sustainable academic excellence.
Staying Tight, Doing Right
We're family, but not in the traditional sense. We're a dynamic group of like-minded and highly driven professionals. We work hard, move fast and have fun along the way. Success is important, but not at any cost. We believe the more we do what's right by our students and business partners, the more success will follow.
Diversity Breeds Strength
Diverse sectors, diverse brands, diverse opportunities. By nature we're very ambitious. But we still take a considered approach to everything we do, managing risks and growth in equal measure. Our acquisition mindset means we're always ready to capitalise on new opportunities to broaden and diversify our education footprint.
