“In an entrepreneurial society individuals face a tremendous challenge, a challenge they need to exploit as an opportunity: the need for continual learning and relearning,” (Peter Drucker). A good education is more important today than ever before – for learners, employers, educators, and governments. Knowing How provides education and training providers, employers, research organisations and government with expert consultancy, research and strategy services in the post-16 education and training sector, complimented with specific expertise in EdTech, digital education, blended learning and digital transformation. One goal – make a difference.

About Us
Set up by Dr Lesley Crane more than 10 years ago, Knowing How has one purpose – to support learners, educators, education and training providers, employers, research agencies and government to design, develop and deliver the best possible education and skills experience. We do this through diligent research, razor analysis, intelligent and evidence-informed consultancy, and strategy development. Ultimately, we take the learner’s perspective as customer first and foremost on the simple principle that if an education experience has positive outcomes for them as a person, whether a job-seeker, employee, educator, student, entrepreneur, executive, or leader, then all of the stakeholders involved benefit. It’s an approach that we believe works.
