Maldivian students are increasingly turning towards Sri Lanka as a home away from home for their diverse educational needs. The students of today are very focused and wise in their choice of careers and seek out new avenues and options for education and career development on a regular basis. Increasingly Maldivian students are favoring Sri Lanka to further their education.
Lanka Exhibition and Conference Services (Pvt) Ltd together with Asaree Services (Pvt) Ltd in Maldives, with the endorsement of the Ministry of Education - Maldives, will hold their annual Maldives International Education and Career Expo for the 4th Consecutive year from the 14th – 16th of February 2019 at the Dharubaaruge Exhibition Hall, Male`, Maldives.
Most often youth in developing countries make their way overseas to further their education. Due to certain limitations or in a bid to gain an added advantage over fierce competition in society, students seek out the best destinations for education and development. Promoting Sri Lanka and putting the spotlight on all it has to offer to Maldivian students, the Maldives International Education and Career Expo gives International Schools, Colleges, Institutes, Universities and Management Training Centers the ideal opportunity and platform to meet with potential students together with their parents and brief them on what options are available. Sri Lanka with its close proximity to the Maldives has the added advantage of ease of parental supervision, low costs in travel and living and visits back home.
