Pearson is increasingly becoming a highly interconnected company, with capabilities that work together to help people learn at multiple points in their lives.
Each of our divisions are unique in the needs they address – but our competitive advantage comes from the way we’re able to unite our expertise across all five divisions, with our core competence in Assessment & Qualifications at the heart of everything we do.
Assessment & Qualifications
Assessment & Qualifications is at the centre of the Pearson ecosystem as the natural outcome of any learning activity. Our largest business by revenue and consumer reach. It provides the assessments that enable people to demonstrate their knowledge from school to professional careers.
Virtual Learning
We have a long track record of delivery of high quality, affordable and accessible online learning in our Virtual Learning division.
It offers learning for every age and stage of education. With users able to learn where, when, and how they learn best, giving them a truly personalised experience.
