The Singapore Tourism Board (STB) today opened its first Singapore Education Services
Centre. The centre will provide access to one-stop information for international students studying in Singapore and will cater to their welfare
and well-being beyond the classroom.
The Singapore Education Services Centre is located in the buzz of the arts and learning hub at the YMCA Building at 1 Orchard Road, where international students will
find it most convenient to drop by the centre for education counselling and research, or to mingle with their peers.
STB’s Deputy Chairman and Chief Executive, Mr Lim Neo Chian, said, “The opening of the Singapore Education Services Centre is vital to the Board's plan to enhance
international students' experience in Singapore by making information readily available and easily accessible. In addition, the STB-run centre will provide opportunities
for direct interface with these students. Its strategic location in the centre of the learning hub will also enable STB to feel the pulse of the visitors and better service their
varying needs. Its shop-front location will also enable us to build brand visibility for Singapore Education.”
The centre will house a complete range of prospectuses containing information on educational institutions and their various course offerings. Education counselling
will be made available to students to advise them on the various education options, registration procedures and processes. The centre will also be a one-stop resource
centre for all Singapore Education-related information for international students to ensure that they can conveniently obtain all the necessary post-arrival information to
help them assimilate and integrate quickly into Singapore society.
