GEMS Education has formed a partnership with IDP Education, a world leader in international education services, to provide free expert support to GEMS Education high school students seeking post-secondary education internationally.
The new partnership will see high school students at GEMS Education have access to IDP Education services, such as: course and university selection based on students’ individual needs and career goals, university application guidance, including top global opportunities; offer acceptance, pre-departure guidance and IELTS testing services at IDP IELTS test centres in the UAE.
IDP Education will also assist students who have missed their grades or not yet applied to universities to find the best courses for them at leading universities and colleges around the world, as well as helping students to obtain quick offers thanks to IDP Education’s strong ties with these global institutions.
Rashi Bhattacharya, IDP Country Director for UAE, Oman and Qatar, said, “Our certified education counsellors have helped over half a million international students gain admission into 700+ quality education institutions in the major English-speaking countries. Our success comes from keeping the students’ interest at the heart of everything we do.”
IDP Education is a world leader in international education services, with a huge network of over 120 offices helping students in more than 30 countries to study in Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States of America, Canada and New Zealand. IDP (GD1) is also a proud co-owner of IELTS (International English Language Testing System), the world’s most popular high-stakes English language test.
Further details of the new IDP Education-GEMS Education partnership will be announced in due course, including plans to open a new Global Career Hub located at a premium GEMS Education school in Dubai at the start of the 2019-20 academic year.
