Student travel company EAC has been acquired by TUI Travel.
The English Language Teaching travel company will become part of TUI’s Activity Sector – Student Division.
Established in 1992, EAC provides English Language Courses for students through 35 summer school venues in addition to year-round centres in Hastings and Edinburgh for students and adults.
It also runs activity camps through the Easter and Summer holidays providing childcare solutions.
EAC managing director Andrew Fisher said: “It is a really exciting time for EAC as we set out on this next chapter in our growth.
“We have always been proud of our strong customer relationships, range of courses and tailor-made product approach but combining this with the security and strength of a parent company like TUI Travel PLC will ensure we are well-placed to grow the business to meet our customer’s ongoing needs.
“In addition to ongoing trade with our existing markets we are experiencing noticeable growth from new markets, specifically Russia and Asia, so it is a great time to put our expansion plans into action.â€
