how to become an education partner

A Biomatrix Education Delivery Partnership  is initiated by inquiry.

It is negotiated and customised according to the specific needs of the partner.

Bedsides delivery, there will also be negotiation about certification and accreditation, as each partner may have its own standards and procedures of monitoring and evaluation.

The Biomatrix School is also willing to negotiate the use of some of the education materials to be made available as a MOOC.

Currently the Biomatrix Design School has a delivery agreement with the Stellenbosch Graduate Institute of South Africa, which certifies the Biomatrix Design Courses.
