Stop Renting Visibility. Start Owning the Conversation.
The Test Community Network (TCN) is not a trade association. We are a market intelligence platform.
Traditional sponsorship offers you a logo on a lanyard or a booth in a quiet exhibition hall. You pay for "visibility," but you rarely get engagement.
The TCN offers Attention and Intent.
- 900+ Verified Members: We represent the active decision-makers in Global Awarding and Professional Assessment Organisations.
- 60% Open Rates: Our weekly briefings achieve engagement rates triple the industry average because we filter the noise.
- High-Intent Data: We know what the industry is searching for before they talk to suppliers.
In 2026, we are offering four ways for forward-thinking vendors to partner with us. We do not sell "slots"; we sell Category Ownership.
1. The Season Host (Quarterly Ownership)
For Market Leaders & Major Product Launches
Best for: Owning a narrative (e.g., Security, Efficiency, AI).
Don't just sponsor a webinar; own the entire quarter. As a Season Host, you align your brand with the industry's most critical "Crisis Periods." You become the solution to the problem everyone is discussing.
- The Webinar Series: You co-host a 3-part webinar series on your chosen theme (Jan-Mar, Apr-Jun, Jul-Sep, or Oct-Dec).
- The Intelligence: Full access to the Intent Dashboard for your quarter. See who is searching for your solution.
Investment: From £3,500 per Quarter. (Limited to 1 Partner per Season)
Update: Jan - March slot taken
2. The Ecosystem Voice (Monthly Takeover)
For Agile Challengers & Niche Specialists
Best for: High-frequency engagement without the heavy lifting of a full webinar series.
Become the voice of the industry for one month. Instead of a sales pitch, you support the community's daily and weekly conversations.
- Weekly Update Sponsorship: "This month's intelligence is powered by [Your Name]" on 4 consecutive episodes/newsletters.
- The Fireside Chat: One 15-minute recorded interview with TCN Founder Tim Burnett. No slides, no scripts, just genuine industry insight.
- Editorial Feature: A dedicated "Spotlight" in our newsletter (sent to 900+ leaders).
Investment: £2,000 per Month. (Limited availability per quarter)
3. The Research Supporter
For Consultants, Universities & Specialist Vendors
Best for: Aligning with evidence-based practice and thought leadership.
Support the science. The TCN runs "Research Sprints", agile, 90-day deep dives into burning industry questions (e.g., "The Impact of AI on Marking").
- Brand Alignment: Your logo on the final Research Report, positioned as a supporter of industry truth.
- Data Access: Early access to the anonymised findings before they are released to the public.
- Newsletter Recognition: Acknowledgement in the sprint launch and wrap-up emails.
Investment: £1,500 per Sprint.
4. Market Intelligence Subscription
For Sales Directors & Commercial Teams
Best for: Teams that need leads and data, not branding.
Stop guessing what the market wants. Our platform captures thousands of queries from Awarding Bodies every month. We strip away the noise and give you the signal.
- Quarterly Intent Report: A dashboard showing the top search terms, rising "pains," and declining trends.
- Competitor Analysis: See where your category is gaining or losing heat.
Investment: £1,000 per Annum.
