The program at CEL has depended not only on the financial support from donors, but also from partnerships with a broad range of public, private and voluntary organizations in the region.

These organizations have contributed by allowing their staff to teach courses, welcoming CEL students into their organizations for internships, work experience and providing projects for students to undertake their final year dissertations.

A number of them have also provided scholarships to students to support their tuition fees. CEL’s partnerships non-exhaustive List is shown below:
