About us

Our core business is education, interpreted widely to include formal education at all levels, informal education and lifelong learning pursued in a variety of social and cultural settings. We also advise on information service management and delivery, and support libraries, museums and archives in developing an effective presence in the global networked information environment.

Our mission is to support affirmative educational and social change. We work to inform and empower people and organisations, providing clients with professional consulting services, robust research and effective project management.

EfC works across the UK and worldwide. We are, however, committed to conserving resources and minimising harm to the environment and so will maximise our use of communication technologies instead of flying, as far as is compatible with our international work commitments. Annually, we offset tonnes of CO2 emissions from flights by making a payment to for carbon dioxide reduction projects that help to slow the rate of global climate change. We expect our clients and those with whom we work to take a similar approach to air travel and will, therefore, include the cost of offsetting unavoidable flights in our charges to clients.

EfC has offices in central London. We have six permanent staff members and we collaborate with a small number of specialist associates to meet the requirements of individual contracts.

The Company was registered in 1997 (reg.no. 3377424). Our VAT number is GB 696 85 6262.
