The Philippines’ recent and sustained economic growth, expanding middle class, large young population, and its basic education system’s transition to K-12, make it an attractive destination for student recruitment and academic linkages.
The 3rd Study in Canada Fair in the Philippines provides a venue for eligible Canadian education institutions to promote their programs and recruit potential Philippine-based students. This event will build on the success of previous education fairs. The popularity of this event is indicative of the overwhelming interest in Canadian education.
In addition to the education exhibit in Manila, the event will be comprised of a series of value-added activities:
- Market briefing with the Trade Commissioner Service (TCS), Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC), Department of Education (on the new K-12 system and curriculum), and Commission on Higher Education (on tertiary education)
- One-on-one meetings with potential partners in the Philippines (optional for schools looking for partners in student recruitment and academic partnerships);
- School visits (universities);
- Networking reception with education contacts; and
- Student-oriented information seminars to be held alongside the exhibit.
List of Edu-Canada Events and Market Reports are available at Edu-Canada PRO
Further to the Brand Use Eligibility Policy jointly established by Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT) and the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada (CMEC), K-12 schools, post-secondary education institutions and language schools are invited to consult the provincial lists of eligible institutions on the Brand extranet at http://www.imagine.cmec.ca/en/zone
If the institution is on the list, it is eligible to participate to the event. If it is not on the list, it is not eligible to participate unless there is clear and written consent of the province/territory where the institution is located.
In order to avoid processing delays, Canadian brand eligible institutions are requested to register for education promotion events using their business/legal name, as it appears on the respective provincial/territorial brand eligibility list.
Private schools authorized to use the curriculum of a province/territory outside of Canada are eligible to participate in the event as sponsors but will be positioned separately (in a non-branded area).
Banks, airlines and insurance companies offering services to students may participate as sponsors and will be situated in the non-branded area.
Education or immigration agents are not eligible to participate in the event, with the sole exception of agents designated by an eligible institution. In that case, agents are responsible to the institution that engaged their services and must adhere to all event guidelines and agent policy.
