Bassett Education India (BEI) is a part of the global Bassett group- a group of organisations with success in diverse fields. We aim to empower our participants with core life-skills necessary for professional success and holistic individual growth.

Our meticulously planned programs go beyond the focus of an ordinary training program. We deliver highly effective skill-based development modules which are taught by global professionals. Our participants are primed with the skills and techniques needed to succeed in both their personal and professional lives.

We have divided these life-skills into four broad categories: Psychological Skills, Emotional Skills, Hard Communication Skills and Multicultural Communication.

How can We help you?

BEI is a life skill training centre delivering international standards of personal and professional development sessions to help program participants become both successful and happy. Though we do have research-backed, structured modules, our programs can also be custom designed to suit the unique needs and schedules of each of our clients.



Our Mission

Bassett Education India strives to deliver high quality professional training services, with integrity and global competency, to enhance the psychological strength of their program participants, communication skills, multicultural understanding and thereby their emotional quotient, thus enabling them to become more than they can be.



Our Philosophy

BEI believes that every individual is gifted and talented, and it is our shared responsibility to assist in unleashing and optimizing these abilities. In order to draw out and develop the integral talents of our learners, our learning happens in an enriching, vibrant, inclusive and welcoming environment. Psychological and emotional sophistication are learned behaviours and awareness of one’s improvement areas is the first step towards bringing about positive change. Our training modules are designed strategically to focus on various aspects of personality development. BEI understands that physical environment has a direct and profound impact on a participant’s state of mind and to that effect, we have a state-of-the-art, mentally stimulating learning facility.

The ultimate aim is to empower participants to achieve positive and desirable changes in personality that was previously thought unattainable.


We are members of the Indo American Chamber of Commerce (IACC), Mahratta Chamber of Commerce Industries and Agriculture (MCCIA).
