I've been fortunate to have commissioned or worked alongside Marina on several occasions over the last 20 years. If you want a thorough and excellent critical analysis, a project delivered to deadline, budget and unexpectedly high level of quality guidance and advice on assessment tools and techniques then look no further. |

Marina has been working with the Academic Team, has been involved in a number of diverse activities and supporting the team in a variety of different ways including updating and redrafting a variety of CTH policies, carrying out mapping projects, and conducting writer training on multiple choice question writing. Particularly invaluable was her support in our work on a successful Ofqual audit.
We are really impressed with Marina’s thoroughness and professionalism; she is extremely organised and a self-starter. Her depth of knowledge based on many years within related businesses has helped us in many ways. Marina has a way of describing things that are easily understood and easy to implement. |

"We have worked with Pareas Associates on projects relating to our international students and overseas representatives. Their evident neutrality elicited valuable information on the basis of which we were able to both adapt our approaches “on the fly” and plan our future activities more systematically. We were very grateful for the care and sensitivity with which our relationships with students and business partners were handled during the research, and for the helpful way in which oral and written reports were tailored to our needs."
