If you thought learning was confined to the classroom, think again.

If you assumed it was always found in a book, open your mind.

It’s not simply the business of childhood, nor is it the property of intellectuals or institutions.

It’s living and breathing in every one of us.

For decades, Pearson has addressed the needs of educational institutions, teachers, and learners across the English-speaking Caribbean. From printbased publishing and the development of digital resources for schools and universities, to academic services, we actively meet local Caribbean curriculum requirements through dedicated resources, as well as serve those following UK and US curriculums.

At Pearson, the “always learning” mentality ensures a constantly evolving portfolio of solutions for teachers and learners from early childhood through to CSEC® and CAPE®, higher education, and adult education.

Facilitating the use of our resources and services in the Caribbean, we rely on an articulated team of sales and marketing professionals distributed across the breadth of the region.
