03 — Partnership Program
Partner with us
The CoastalPro Partnership Program is the key tool for building the community: a simple, non-exclusive affiliation scheme with three levels, clear commitments and clear benefits.
Why a partnership program
To expand reach, build credibility, enrich learning content, and connect education with industry.
Who can partner with us
Two families of organisations join the programme, with different reasons for doing so.
- Vocational and training providers — VET centres, high schools, colleges and universities: expand your teaching material and engage your students.
- Tourism businesses — hotels, sports operators, agencies: train your personnel and onboard your partners.
- Priority profiles: secondary schools in coastal or tourism-intensive areas, vocational centres in regions needing skilled tourism workers, and higher education institutions in business and social sciences in countries with established coastal tourism.
Partnership levels
Three levels — Affiliate, Navigator, Strategic Partner — each with clear commitments and benefits.
How it works
Onboarding is deliberately light — four steps, no exclusivity.
- Test and decide: a demo account to explore the platform and a private call to discuss options.
- Agree and sign: define your level and benefits and sign a short, non-exclusive MoU.
- Launch and promote: promote the course to your students and join the network and its joint events.
- Next level: contribute learning material and customise your own version of the course.
Beyond training
Partners also play a key role in the entrepreneurship programme — coaching, crowdfunding, internships and masterclasses.
