MANILA, Philippines - The term, “globalization”, has become synonymous with success. More opportunities abound and there are definitely more possibilities to consider and conquer. The upcoming 2010 Commonwealth Education Fair definitely taps into that current global movement.
Since it began last year, the primary objective of the Commonwealth Education Fair has always been to help develop and expand the global education market in the Philippines. Alongside partner organizations — British Council, Austrade, Canadian Trade Commissioner Service, New Zealand Trade and Enterprise and the Singapore Tourism Board — this year will once again see the participation of various academic institutions from Canada, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand and the UK.
The Fair provides affordable and accessible options for Filipinos who want to study abroad. Through the school representatives present, attendees can be provided first-hand information on how to go about with the application process, the various courses and opportunities available, as well as costs for living and tuition.
In addition, the first-ever International Partnerships Forum will cap this week-long event; providing a venue for local and international schools to meet and discuss opportunities for future collaborations. Such an occasion aims to continue advancing the worldwide recognition and globalization of Philippine universities.
Study International, the education consultancy company organizing these events, realizes the great potential of Filipinos to take on education abroad and the possibility of international success through such a pathway. Since 2004, Study International has established itself as an approachable and supportive partner for students, assisting with their plans in studying abroad. Through counselling, as well as application, testing, visa application, travel and pre-departure arrangements, the company prides itself with having sent more than 300 students to various affiliated schools abroad.
