Strategy

Overview

Our journey to success was a corporate journey crafted with great foresight and a well-designed roadmap.

The foundation of an excellent educational institution comprises a superior curriculum, an outstanding faculty and an intellectual environment. For years, these remained as the Group’s core competencies.

RafflesEducation seeks sustainable growth that creates value for its stakeholders. The trusted Raffles brand name and its network of institutions support the Group’s continued organic growth. The Group also owns valuable education assets across Asia-Pacific and Europe that can be realised for reinvestment into its education business.

Capitalising on its strong fundamentals, the Group will continue to build breadth and depth at its existing colleges, expand its network of institutions, grow its university group, create value at its university city and strengthen its academic quality.

❝ Our Strategies are Meant to Ensure Sustainability In Our Education Business. ❞

Build Breadth And Depth Of Existing College

RafflesEducation enjoys a reputation as a provider of quality education that focuses on practical training and academic excellence. Therefore, the Group is relentless in implementing initiatives and efforts to fortify its education business.

Resources are invested to continually enhance and expand programme offerings to cater to a diverse community of students, as well as to attract and retain exceptional faculty. The Group also strives to deepen its ties with industry partners to better prepare students for the dynamic workplace and therefore increase their employability. Together, these efforts enable the Group to build breadth and depth of its existing colleges for greater growth.

Expand Network Of Institutions

One of the unique advantages of RafflesEducation is the opportunity for students to complete their studies in any institutions within the Raffles network. Given the Group’s extensive global presence, students can receive international exposure to enrich their personal outlook and learning experience. RafflesEducation currently has higher educational institutions in The People’s Republic of China and Malaysia. The expansion of Raffles’ network of colleges is significant, as it will eventually translate into a larger market share for RafflesEducation.

Create Value At Oriental University City

The Group owns and leases education facilities, comprising primarily teaching buildings and dormitories to Educational institutions in the PRC, Malaysia and the Republic of Indonesia (“Indonesia*”). The Group’s education facilities are located in the OUC Campus; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Jakarta, Indonesia. In addition, the Group also leases commercial properties in the OUC Campus to commercial tenants operating a range of supporting facilities, including a shopping centre, supermarket, cafe and cafeterias, bank, telecommunication companies, dental and polyclinic, amongst others, to serve the needs of students in the campus and the residents of adjacent housing estates.

Strengthen Academic Quality

RafflesEducation places a strong emphasis on curriculum development that is relevant to industry trends and needs. The ultimate goal of an education with Raffles is to groom skilled professionals through the transfer of industry-relevant knowledge and technical know-how to succeed in the globalised economy. Quality Assurance & Enhancement Unit (QAEU), is the corporate unit responsible for all academic matters and adheres strictly to a rigorous reporting and audit system to ensure quality standards and assurance, as well as operational compliance. Through QAEU, the Group grows its intellectual property portfolio and strengthens its accreditations and academic credibility.
