Students in Dubai will have access to representatives from leading unversities and academic institutions from more than 40 countries at an upcoming event in the emirate.

 

The Gulf Education and Tranining Exhibition (Getex) will run from April 13 to 15 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

 

Education experts will be available during the region’s leading student-oriented event to guide learners towards making an informed decision in their pursuit of higher studies, said a statement.

 

The event will showcase more than 2,500 international academic, training and vocational programmes and will serve as an interactive platform for both incoming university students and professionals seeking to reinforce their careers by enrolling in relevant post-graduate and training programmes.

 

Anselm Godinho, managing director of International Conferences & Exhibitions, the organiser of Getex, said: “Since its inception in 1988, the annual expo has served as an important networking and learning platform for regional and international learners, teachers, trainers and professionals. 

 

"We have been attracting key industry leaders and stakeholders over the past years, offering students with extensive course choices on one hand, and educational providers with opportunities to meet their enrollment targets and engage with their next batch of learners, on the other. We are confident that Getex will continue to be the Middle East’s top student recruitment platform ensuring a high rate of conversion from enquiry to student enrollment, thus making the event a very viable investment for exhibiting universities.”

 

The face-to-face interaction at Getex will enable students and parents to get answers to their questions leading to on-the-spot decisions and submission of student applications. It will also lay the groundwork for successful student conversions and increased marketing visibility, said the statement.

 

Similarly, it will address the needs of learners who are eager for information on further academic and industry-ready education or training opportunities, it added. - TradeArabia News Service
