University and College Trial Programme - Access new products and systems for free

The EAUC is working with a select number of our Company Members to let universities and colleges evaluate and test their products, as part of a drive to provide ‘free stuff to test’ for our educational members. There is no obligation involved and we hope it will help provide honest feedback on these services to help improve them and the sustainability practices around them. We are asking EAUC members to volunteer to have a conversation about performing one of these trials, with no obligation. We would ideally like to have three universities or colleges working on each trial.
 
We want to ensure that the expertise of our educational members is really tapped into for these trials, so encourage institutions to help shape exactly what form the trial takes in their initial conversation with the company member whose product or service they are interested in trailing.
 
The trials we are currently setting up are below. Please contact our Corporate Relationship Manager, Wayne Talbot, for more information or to take part. [email protected].
