This b(l)og will primarily record information regarding market data, trends, etc for studying abroad / overseas / finding the best institution for higher ed.

That's the short and sweet summary.

Onto info:

Ashridge says:

At present, 1.9 million students study outside of their home countries at all levels of management education. These students come mainly from rapidly developing markets like China, India, Malaysia and Indonesia and go primarily to the major English-speaking destination countries: 30% to the US, 15% to the UK, and 5% each to Canada and Australia. The many new English-language based programmes in Europe will seek to break into theses markets for globally mobile students.

its a trillion dollar market and that's what the European school are targeting - based on
- proximity
- economical
- equated edu value
- liberal == "more fun"
