THE Bahamas is to play host to an education event later this month.

Bridgette Francis Ingraham, of Drewber Solutions and Global Conversations Development Centre, has launched Education Tourism Bahamas.

The team will host the inaugural Bahamas Education and Scholarship Summit (BESS) 2022 from September 13-14.

In a statement, the organisation said: “As Bahamian residents continue to pursue educational opportunities worldwide, BESS bridges the gap by introducing residents to these international opportunities regardless of their educational, social, or financial background. BESS does not solely focus on high school students but instead caters to all persons that desire to enhance their educational level. From the international GED, undergraduate degrees, graduate degrees, or certifications, more than fifteen universities will be present to guide participants in choosing the appropriate areas of study.”

The event will be held on both New Providence and Grand Bahama. Family Islanders are encouraged to participate virtually.

A virtual college fair will be held on Tuesday, September 13th, and people can register at https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcpc-irqjIiHNB1er-PXbWardRzjhAlfLG4. It will run from 7pm-9pm.

The Grand Bahama event is on Wednesday, September 14, at the City of Life Entertainment Centre (formally the bowling alley), from 11am-3pm.
