RLN (UK) Ltd has two core aims;

  • to develop and implement business support and learning projects including language and cultural activities. Since April 2011 this activity has been extended to cover multi-regional activity as well as delivering projects both in the UK and internationally.
  • to build on our expertise as evaluators in helping funding bodies to systematically find and describe the achievement and impact of projects. We have specialist experience in both European funded projects, sector based business funding and skills and education projects.

Our key target groups are the business community (in particular SMEs), intermediary bodies involved in business support & government bodies, and we also provide support to the mainstream education sector through links with business.
