The Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) at the Consulate General of Canada in Hong Kong (TCS) invites Canadian education institutions to participate in the Canada Education Fair in Hong Kong from October 25 to 27. Activities will include a market briefing and networking reception.

Hong Kong represents a vibrant and competitive market for recruitment of students for international study. Education is a deeply important investment for Hong Kong families, and many parents believe that degrees earned overseas carry greater prestige and will boost the future income earning potential for their children.

Canada is viewed favorably by prospective parents and students in Hong Kong, as a safe, liberal and multicultural country, offering a high standard of education. Since competition in Hong Kong is fierce, with countries such as the U.S., UK and Australia also actively engaged in recruitment of local students, education fairs such as the upcoming Canada Education Fair offer excellent opportunities for Canadian institutions to market themselves to local parents and students.
