Study International education fair: A world of opportunities

by Kevin John Domingo


MAKATI - Study International, a non-governmental organization dedicated to help students pursue their education abroad, has partnered with the British Council, Imagine Education in Canada, and Education Malaysia for the Study International Education Fair held at the New World Hotel last November 23 from 1 pm to 9 pm.
It was also held last 19 and 21 in Cebu and Davao, respectively. Study International Counsellor Dianne Siozon said that the fair caters to those who want to pursue studies abroad and perhaps also intend to work and build a life in that country.
"The objective of the fair is to develop and grow the global education market in the Philippines by providing students with access to affordable quality international institutions and courses," says Siozon.
"The fair also aims to provide a wider range of options and pathways to Filipino students seeking world class education opportunities," she added.
In the Makati installment alone, around two hundred (200) people from different parts of Metro Manila pre-registered and attended in the education fair. The attendees were warmly welcomed by the organizers and facilitators from some of the participating universities from the United Kingdom, Malaysia, and Canada. Students were given time to inquire about the various programs and scholarships offered by the participating academic institutions
The participating colleges and universities were also given a chance to share a 20-minute keynote speech to further encourage the attendees to study outside their home country.
"Education is the best investment you can give yourself and that studying abroad is not as expensive as you think.  There are pathways available that will cater to every budget.  Having an International degree is becoming more and more important as we have gone global.  The youth of our neighbouring Asian countries understand this concept fully and are studying international degrees as they recognize that this will get them better employment not only in Vietnam but in other countries," says Siozon.
Study International is a non-governmental organization established in 2004 which "mission is to assist any student through the process of research, application, testing and pre-departure arrangements, as well as travel and visa planning. Working closely with select institutions in Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Thailand, New Zealand, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States, the organization aspires to be the premiere education service provider in the Philippines.(1)" They can be contacted with the following details: 817-80-90 (Tel), 817-94-37 (Fax), info@studyinternational.com.ph (E-mail) or you may visit their office at the UG36 Alfaro Place, 146 LP Leviste St., Salcedo Village, Makati City.
