EdExpo Tanzania 2012 Overview
EdExpo Tanzania 2012 - the largest international higher education exhibition in Tanzania was a great success with an outstanding number of attendees. It showed students and learners the various options they have in pursuing higher education around the world.
Fifteen international universities and institutes from Guyana, Latvia, Bulgaria, Australia, UK, South Africa, India and Tanzania were represented at this event. It was held at the Golden Tulip Hotel, Dar es Salaam, March 14 to 17 2012. At the exhibition, students were given the opportunity to meet directly with representatives of these universities and institutions, and discuss everything from study programmes to life abroad, accommodation, transport and other such practical matters.
EdExpo Tanzania 2012 offered spontaneous interactive assistance and it greatly helped students in making what was probably the most important decision in their lives. The information they got was accurate, genuine and eye opening.
The great difference between EdExpo Tanzania 2012 and other higher education exhibitions is that EdExpo Tanzania 2012 revealed the wide array of study options available in different countries, for comparison and contrast, and thereby helped students make an informed decision as to what was best for them.
The 2013 edition of EdExpo Tanzania will be held in Dar es Salaam from 13th to 15th March 2013 with the 3rd day (15th March) being dedicated to a series of seminar presentations from the visiting representatives for parents, teachers, students and other education/learning stakeholders.
