Our Market
In many African countries, such as Nigeria,
there has been an increasing shortage of highly
skilled individuals vital to the transformation
of local economies. As a consequence of this,
companies located in these countries have
experienced a limited selection of prospective
employees. To deal with this shortfall of
skilled workers, many local corporations offer
to send their current workers for advance
training overseas in institutions located in
Europe and North America. Also, many individuals
desirous of higher paying jobs and the
prerequisite skills for such jobs actively seek
further training in these institutions.
Traditionally, prospective students and
educational establishments have come together as
a result of the student’s own limited and
sometimes hasty research, ‘word of mouth’, or
advertisements placed in magazines or
newspapers. None of these methods afford the
student a thorough review of options and
guidance on the choice to make. Also, foreign
institutions have had considerable challenges in
evaluating the suitability of these prospective
students for enrollment. There are also delays
associated with the processing of the necessary
materials and paperwork essential for a timely
assumption of studies.
LDN Educational Services
seeks to bring additional opportunities into the
process of review, selection and choice of
educational institution for undergraduate, graduate and
post-graduate study. We offer enhancements to
the ‘traditional’ methods, by giving prospective
students the opportunity to consider a wide
range of opportunities in Europe and North
America.
Our highly knowledgeable and
experienced employees, most of whom have
undergone overseas post-graduate education
themselves, are able to offer well-researched
evaluations on the suitability of particular
institutions and courses based upon the students
specific needs and wishes. An immediate benefit
to students is a reduction in research and
communication costs in the application process.
Our primary market is Nigeria but we do extend
our services to neighbouring African countries,
and increasingly to ‘overseas based’ African
students seeking to further their education with
a particular emphasis on ‘employability’ back in
their home country.
