EpicQuest Education Announces New Recruiting Initiatives

The New Initiatives are Expected to Increase Enrollment at Both of its Owned and Operated Schools

MIDDLETOWN, Ohio, Jan. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- EpicQuest Education Group International Limited (NASDAQ: EEIQ), ("EpicQuest Education", "EEIQ" or the "Company"), a provider of comprehensive education solutions for domestic and international students seeking college and university degrees in the US, Canada and the UK, today announced that EduGlobal College launched its 'Canada's Top 3 Elite Training Program', and that Davis University entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Hetu Education Technology Co., Ltd., located in Xinjiang, China. The Company anticipates that the new initiatives for its two owned and operated schools will help to bolster its revenue in the coming periods.

"We believe that these new bold recruiting initiatives continue to build on the success of our international recruiting. Our new program offered by EduGlobal College offers a comprehensive and unique solution for students who want to pursue higher education and job opportunities in Canada. In addition, the new collaboration that Davis University has entered into has the potential to provide a steadily growing stream of new students for Davis. Our growth strategy of internationalization has led us to increase our focus on recruiting from different regions in the world which we expect to increase enrollment and revenue going forward," commented EpicQuest Education CEO Jianbo Zhang. 

EpicQuest Education's EduGlobal College ("EduGlobal") officially launched its 'Canada's Top 3 Elite Training Program' at a special event at the Capital Club, a private club serving high-level business people in China which is located on the 50th floor of the Capital Building in Beijing. Over 150 participants, either in person or online, joined us for the live event. The Program provides a seamless academic transition for students in China who aspire to further their studies at top universities in Canada. Upon meeting the admissions and requisite course requirements at EduGlobal, students will have the opportunity to transfer to top universities in Canada.

EduGlobal is renowned for providing the very best of English proficiency courses, providing international students with the linguistic skill set needed in an academic setting. The Program provides students with a solid English language foundation that prepares students for academic studies and first-year courses that may be transferred to Canadian universities while also providing career planning and paid internship and employment services. The Program also offers comprehensive life services which allows students to focus on their academic journey. After graduation, students with the intention of long-term residence in Canada can also receive professional immigration consultation and services, including assistance with visa extensions, work visa applications, permanent residency applications, and legal and procedural advice from EduGlobal partners.

In addition, EpicQuest Education's Davis University ("Davis") entered into an Articulation Agreement with Hetu Education Technology Co., Ltd. ("Hetu"), through Hetu's JNC Summer School ("JNC"), for JNC to (1) recruit non-degree students to take either in person or online courses during the summer at Davis, and (2) to recruit students to transfer to the Associate and Bachelor's Degree programs of Davis. JNC was founded by Hetu and is one of the first educational programs in China to offer summer credit courses to international students. The growth of summer courses offered to these students recruited by JNC is expected to be sustainable and significant.

EEIQ's strategic plan is to achieve sustainable growth through a strategy of internationalization. This refers to Davis College and EduGlobal College, our owned and operated colleges, as well as our recruiting relationship with Miami University Regionals. To achieve its strategic goals, the Company is focused on broadening our academic programming and diversifying and growing its student base. EEIQ believes that its strategy of internationalization, which also includes working collaborations around the world, brings out the very best in academia and student achievement.
