Discuss your career prospects with Australian University Representatives at Edlocate
View(s):This is the time university representatives especially from Australia, New Zealand and Malaysia visit countries where there are prospective students seeking entry to mid year intakes in universities in these countries. Edlocate has invited a number of representatives from Australia and have arranged interview sessions in their Colombo and Kandy offices for prospective students. Parents are welcome at such interviews.
These interview sessions are most useful for students to take decisions with regard to career selection, choice of course, pathway and university to study. These representatives live and work in Australia. They travel regularly to other countries on promotional visits. They compare notes with their counterparts in international universities with which they have student exchange programmes and they are the best people to advice on career opportunities in Australia and internationally. They can thus guide students to balance between their aspirations and employment opportunities. They are well updated with the courses on offer in their universities, the latest changes to courses introduced, the best pathways to graduate, based on students educational background and possibilities to apply for scholarships if the student is a high achiever. These factors are highly useful for students to make the right decision.
The university representatives are joined at these interview sessions by counsellors of Edlocate. Together they can discuss with the parents the fee structure for choice of courses and selected pathways, give information regarding enrolment procedures, the requirements with regard to obtaining student visa and details about accommodation and other matters that need to be given due consideration.
Students and parents have so many queries when they are making a crucial decision of this nature that involves a child’s future and a sizeable sum of money. These concerns cannot be discussed in a few minutes in the presence of so many others. They need proper follow up meetings and actions. There should be ample time to get all points clarified and the privacy required to get maximum benefit. The best way to get information one requires is not at an education exhibition where time is limited, there is no privacy and there is no input from local counsellors for follow up action. It is for this reason that Edlocate arranges each year several one on one interview sessions with the representatives from the universities it handles in Sri Lanka. The large number of success stories of students who have made opportunities to meet university representatives at agent arranged in-house interview sessions bear witness to the usefulness of this exercise.
A good tertiary education will ensure that your child enters the competitive world as a professional at the right age and secures a good future. It is a pity that students in Sri Lanka are facing so many difficulties to obtain excellent tertiary education within the country for no fault of theirs. The parents worry over their children. Speak to us at Edlocate regardless of your financial standing and we would try to show possibilities for your child to achieve success. There are many students from middle class families we have helped over the past 13 years. There are amazing stories we can narrate through our alumni.
