The main objective of the Singapore Education Services (Pvt) is to
facilitate the students who are looking for their advanced studies in
Singapore, General Manager G.E.L. Aravindan Regunathan said.
"With the internet age and quick air links the World is getting
closer and it is one reason for the Sri Lankan students choosing to
study in Singapore.
"By choosing to study abroad in Singapore, international students
have an opportunity to not only be plugged into an education system that
promotes excellence, but also be a part of a global community. As
English is widely used, students will never feel out of place while
experiencing the local culture," Regunathan added.
"We are catering O/L students for Diploma programs and A/L students
for the Degree programs."
The Government of Singapore is inviting students with different
cultural origins of other countries to study in Singapore." Over the
last four years, GEL has organized overseas educational visits for more
than 500 schools across Asia mainly from India, China, Vietnam and
Indonesia to attract students to study in Singapore. As we saw the
potential we decided to focus on Sri Lanka as well. These visits were
productive as many students of different countries are now in Singapore
to undergo programs of different magnitude, for industry visits and also
to take up short courses.
G.E.L is registered under the Ministry of Tourism Board Singapore and
is a part of the Ministry of Education Singapore.
There are list of Universities which has affiliated to the Singapore
Institute Of Management University, the National Universities of
Singapore, the Nan Yang Technological University, the Singapore
Management University, MDIS University, Schools, Educational institutes,
and training providers facilitate a wide variety of options for exchange
programs, immersion programs and training courses for the clients.
