Centre of productivity

After over three decades of residence in the metropolis, the British Council of Productivity Associations (BCPA) has moved upstream to Henley‐on‐Thames — or to be more precise to Henley — The Management College, known simply over the years and over the world as Henley. As a centre for its Local Productivity Associations (LPAs), the BCPA's location will not be unique to Henley; it has itself established other centres for Forecasting, Employment Policy Studies, International Management, Management Development and Advisory Services, and Research Programmes. It has close links with similar educational institutions in many parts of the world, having helped to establish them — in Australia, Ghana, India, Pakistan, New Zealand and the Philippines. It has assisted in the design of educational programmes in the management colleges of Nigeria, Jamaica, Mexico, Denmark, Turkey, Norway, and Argentina, and New York University. It has a special link with Brunel University for the development of post‐graduate studies in business management. It also has its own subsidiary company, Henley Open Management Education (HOME), known as Henley Distance Learning. There are obvious advantages in being linked to such an influential and internationally respected management educational institution.
