St. George's University Strengthens Global Networks at Education Retreat

  • St. George's University (SGU) successfully held its Education Agents Retreat Day in Thailand. During the retreat, more than 25 prominent recruitment agents from Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines, Korea, and Taiwan gathered for a series of workshops at Dusit Thani Laguna in Phuket. SGU is renowned worldwide for its academic excellence. With a diverse student body and faculty from over 150 countries, SGU stands as a truly global institution with an international perspective. The SGU School of Medicine holds accreditation from the Grenada Medical and Dental Council, recognized by the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME).

    The Education Agents Retreat Day was initiated to strengthen SGU's partnerships with agents who serve as recruitment representatives in critical East Asian markets. These agents play a vital role in facilitating the application processes for prospective students in these regions.

    David Anthonisz, Executive Director of International Student Recruitment at SGU, said, "The launch of the Agent Retreat Day is a testament to our commitment to fostering international collaboration and ensuring our recruitment partners in East Asia are well-informed about SGU and its program/tracks. This understanding is essential in providing international students access to comprehensive medical education and vast professional opportunities in the US or the UK".

    In addition to showing appreciation for the recruitment efforts of education agents, this event served as a platform for agents to discuss their students' career aspirations, delve into SGU's offerings, learn about the specifics of the MD program, and explore the admissions process in detail.

    Nahpachsuda Cheerranichanunth, Counselor from Hands On, said, "The Agent retreat day has empowered me with the knowledge needed to effectively guide aspiring medical students. Additionally, participating in SGU's clinical workshop, which focused on life-saving techniques such as first aid and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), has further equipped me with invaluable tools to support my student's academic and professional journeys".
