Since the Inspiration UK guide was first introduced to our audience and stakeholders in Taiwan, the reputation of this annual publication has become well-established along with the British Council’s work in promoting UK education in country. A combined approach involving notable alumni and industry professionals nourished through UK education, joint promotional activities plus circulation year round, ensures a widespread understanding of the UK’s education excellence whilst advertising the sector.
The forthcoming Inspiration UK is to add value to subject areas, starting from this year with Business & Management, Social Science & Humanities, which ranges from education and PR/marketing, to urban regeneration. Testimonials form a core element of the guide, providing motivation to study in the UK, insight into post-study career paths and relevant trends and developments in these areas. Generic information on UK education at all levels will be included with a light touch on cultural and travel advice.
Inspiration UK is written in Chinese and it is frequently used for public-facing events organised or joined by the British Council throughout the year. Booking a profile page on Inspiration UK is a cost-effective investment for UK institutions looking to promote their offers more extensively as well as to maintain their presence in the market.
