Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø rebrands to reflect a new era of learning for Indonesians

The Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø (Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø) launched its rebranded identity at an event in Jakarta, Indonesia on 29 September 2022. Graced by Mr Kwok Fook Seng, Singapore Ambassador to the Republic of Indonesia, the event—held at Pullman Thamrin—was attended by 50 guests, made up of representatives from the Singapore Embassy, Enterprise Singapore, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø’s corporate partners, and the media.

The launch in Jakarta is the third overseas launch of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø’s new brand as part of its regional rebranding campaign, after China and India. Singapore, as Headquarters, launched the new identity in July.

Speaking at the event, Mr Gerald Lum, Director, Brand, Marketing and Communications, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø, highlighted that Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø’s purpose in rebranding is aligned with Indonesia’s goal to improve its human resources. He noted that President Joko Widodo, in his latest annual State of the Nation Address, had identified education as a priority so that Indonesia can capitalise on its demographic bonus and be ready to face technology disruptions. In the same way, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø is rebranding itself to futureproof its learners as it pivots to being industry-focused, skills-based and learner-centred.

The collaboration with UIC College will enable Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø to bring its in-house diploma programmes to Indonesians and offer opportunities for them to pursue a bachelor’s degree of their choice in Singapore upon graduation. The first intake of students is targeted for April 2023. UIC College will be Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø’s first Overseas Teaching Centre (OTC) in Indonesia. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø plans to have up to five OTCs, over the next three years in Indonesia.

The MOU signed will enable Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø to engage students from the school and understand their learning needs for tertiary education, organise seminars and workshops, and facilitate scholarship interviews with Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø.
 

The Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø Indonesia Representative Office (RO) was set up in 2018, and it was the first representative office set up in the region, due to the demand in quality transnational education from Indonesia. Today, Indonesian students make up 19% of the overseas student population at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¹ÙÍø.
