Our focus on building stronger, long-term partnerships.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As part of our commitment to quality and long-term sustainability, EC will be closing two centres in 2026, while retaining a strong presence in both countries, with four centres across the UK and two in Canada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This page has all the information you and your students need to handle the transition confidently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Upcoming closures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

EC Bristol<\/strong> – Closing end of June 2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

EC Montreal<\/strong> – Closing end of September 2026 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n

Why we’re doing this<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We made this decision after carefully considering how to best serve our community. By focusing our resources on fewer locations, we can invest more in excellent academic experiences, great facilities, and new programmes for our students and partners. Thank you for your trust and partnership as we move forward together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our centres around the world, along with our online platform EC Live, remain at the heart of our future plans. With your continued support, we are excited to create wonderful new experiences and opportunities for all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

EC’s continued growth <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to our year-round adult schools, the EC portfolio is growing. Embassy Summer and Global Achievers Academy are both expanding, with new summer programmes starting this year in Spain and China. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support for partners & students <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will work closely with all affected partners to make the transition as smooth as possible and help students find the best alternative EC destination. Our teams are here to guide you through the next steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
