IDP Education Malaysia has been offering comprehensive counselling services for students looking to study in Australia for over 25 years.
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.
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 to be successful – and these are just the sort of attributes employers look for in an employee.
At IDP Education Malaysia, the trained and experienced counsellors will assist students throughout their journey exploring education opportunities in Australia. This goes beyond a counsellor merely matching your choice of study with suitable institutions.
In fact, being at the forefront of the education industry, IDP has invested in technology to help Malaysian students find the best institutions to study in.
With access to exclusive innovative software platforms and the interactive newly launched IDP website, the student will obtain up-to-date information on the institution of their choice.
Popular choice among Malaysians
According to information from Australian Education International, more Malaysian students are choosing to study in Australia than any other overseas location.
Australian universities are known for their excellent teaching skills and research facilities.
They are also one of the pioneers in innovation and quality in their approach to vocational education and training.
Besides that, Australia has emerged as a leader in the development of international benchmarks for proper accreditation which provides Malaysian parents with peace of mind when choosing a location for overseas education.
Moreover, students can move through flexible study pathways to gain the right balance of practical skills and theoretical knowledge for their future careers.
These education providers have worked together to create a well-established system that assists students in moving easily from one level to the next. The Australian government meticulously oversees these stringent quality standards, which ensures that graduates return home to begin their careers more job-ready than their counterparts.
