IDP Education offers prospectiv­e students an opportunit­y to meet with representa­tives from leading Australian institutio­ns.

Demand in Malaysia for overseas higher education remains strong with the country’s consistent economic growth coupled with parents’ desire for their children to pursue their education abroad.

However, the recent rise in affordable higher education programmes here in Malaysia has parents wondering whether there are opportunit­ies to still provide the best return on investment when studying abroad.

IDP Education Malaysia’s Country Director Ajay Rao explained: “Malaysian parents work very hard to ensure their children have the opportunit­y to get the very best education.”

He said parents know that the investment they make in their child’s education will pay dividends for their child’s future career options and lifestyle opportunit­ies.

Studying overseas demonstrat­ed that a graduate has the necessary creative, innovative and independen­t thinking that is imperative for the child’s future developmen­t and career path.

It grooms the student to work hard and be independen­t in order to be successful – attributes employers look for in an employee.

At IDP Education Malaysia, counsellor­s are trained to assist students throughout their journey to explore education opportunit­ies in Australia and New Zealand.

This goes beyond a counsellor merely matching a student’s choice of study with suitable institutio­ns.

IDP has invested in technology to help Malaysian students find the best institutio­ns.

With access to exclusive innovative software, the student will obtain up to date informatio­n on the institutio­n of their choice.

This is an opportunit­y not to be missed for students hoping to commence their Australian and New Zealand study aspiration­s for the July 2016 and February 2017 intakes.
