Supporting students to thrive in education

Help students to reduce anxiety, manage overwhelm, and maintain motivation to have the rich university experience they deserve.

Improving retention and participation

Increasing retention is a priority for all education institutions. Through improving participation and attendance, Brain in Hand can help improve your overall rates of academic achievement and reduce non-continuation.

This is why we work with universities to embed Brain in Hand into local support practices, lending our experience to your team.
