BeeEducated is designed to complement local associations, not replace them.

A simple partnership model

You provide local mentoring and practical opportunities. BeeEducated provides the structured learning, competency framework, evidence guidance, assessment and certification.

An association can support a learner using its existing apiary, mentors and training approach. It does not need to rewrite its course or make final assessment decisions.

Potential benefits for associations

  • a clear progression route for members who want to demonstrate practical competence;
  • new members referred to local practical support;
  • ready-to-use competency and evidence guidance;
  • mentor guidance that clarifies support versus assessment;
  • a consistent external assessment framework.
