At a time when many businesses are clinging on for survival, BPP’s shareholders could be about to see the true value of education. BPP Holdings, which owns BPP Law School, has announced that it has received a buyout-approach from US education provider Apollo Global. Many of you will already have experienced first hand the professional services training at BPP. Their legal education business is very highly regarded in the UK and they consistently compete with the College of Law as a top provider of vocational education to lawyers.
BPP is sole supplier to the City LPC consortium in which it exclusively provides the course to candidates from Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Herbert Smith, Lovells, Norton Rose and Slaughter and May. BPP also provides vocational training for accountants, tax practitioners, insolvency practitioners, actuaries, financial services professionals, and marketing practitioners.
