FILIPINOS often take a chance to further their education overseas when presented with an opportunity. It’s not because of the country’s education system, but because they want to apply curriculums that satisfy their interests. In most cases, Filipinos also study abroad because it provides them with a cultural experience that broadens their horizons.
Yet before they can study abroad, they must meet a language proficiency requirement to ensure they can thrive in their new community. And that’s what IDP Philippines has been doing–offering their services to ensure Filipinos can grab the chance to fulfill their dreams overseas.
IDP Philippines opened its new office on Nov. 15, 2023, in Quezon City, making it IDP’s 8th student placement office and 15th IELTS on Computer test center in the country.
The new IDP Quezon City Office is located on the 5th floor of the NorthLink building, SM City North Edsa, Brgy. Sto. Christo, Quezon City. It provides free study-abroad services and houses its latest International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test center.
The Quezon City office comes with face-to-face counseling, study-abroad student services, and the world’s leading high-stakes English language proficiency test, making it more accessible to Filipinos living in the northern part of Metro Manila and nearby provinces in Luzon.
Besides their free services, IDP offers a computerized IELTS exam, where they can get their results back within two to five days. Students can choose their exam schedule, whether in the morning or afternoon, from Monday to Sunday.
IDP Philippines’ students also have a chance to retake one of the four components of their IELTS exam, whether speaking, listening, reading, or writing. It helps ease the pressure from examinees and allows them to boost their overall score.
An Australian-listed company, IDP operates in more than 80 countries globally, empowering people to achieve their global study, work, and migration goals. IDP specializes in combining human expertise with our leading digital platform to help people get accepted into their ideal course, take an English language test, or learn English in our schools.
Jose Miguel Habana, the Country Director of IDP Education Philippines, proudly shared during the opening of the IDP Philippines’s Quezon City test center that IDP guides their students throughout their study-abroad journey when they apply for a study-abroad program, such as finding the right course and institution for them until they learn to thrive in their new environment.
They also offer financial advice to students so they can learn how to manage their lifestyles during their study-abroad program while having the necessary funding to meet their educational needs.
IDP has helped more than 700,000 students study in quality courses around the world, and with millions of IELTS tests taken every year, IDP Philippines’ expansion will deliver global success to more students, test takers, and partner institutions. IDP’s trusted expert counselors, global digital platform, and the world’s most respected English language test mean that IDP Philippines can help customers turn their study abroad goals into a career launchpad.
IDP has three other offices offering study abroad and IELTS services in Pasig City, Makati City, and Cebu City. Earlier this year, IDP opened three offices offering free study-abroad assistance and consultations in Batangas, Iloilo, and Davao.
In addition, IDP opened its first exclusive IELTS on Computer laboratory in Manila City and has ten shared IELTS on Computer laboratories in Laoag, Baguio, Pampanga, Laguna, Naga, Bacolod, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, Davao, and Zamboanga.
