ACG attends Middle East’s IDP Roadshow

ACG Education attended one of the largest student-facing education events in the Middle East this month, in partnership with Victoria University of Wellington.

The IDP Study Abroad Roadshow, held in seven cities across the Middle East, hosts more than 80 universities and education providers from the US, UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand and caters for students from the region interested in studying abroad.

Gwawr Tagg, ACG Education Regional Sales Manager – MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa, represented ACG and Victoria University at the Dubai and Abu Dhabi events. The two institutions are partners in delivering the Victoria University of Wellington Foundation Studies Programme, which has recently celebrated its successful one year anniversary.

“We are always delighted to meet face to face with students from our diverse and growing Middle Eastern market and provide them information on ACG Education courses and schools,” Ms Tagg said. “And it’s a sign of our strong relationship that we are able to represent our partner institution at the event as well.”

The UAE is actively working to develop the country through higher education, offering a number of educational scholarships to students to study abroad. There is also a diverse expatriate population looking for their next step in education.

ACG Education is a global leader in education with preschools, schools, university pathway programmes and vocational and higher education colleges at 50 campuses across three countries.
