Addition to the ILAC family
Another international college has joined ILAC Education Group.
We have shared many times that we have partnered with ILAC, something we are proud of. Because ILAC is one of the best English language schools and an international college that has already enabled thousands of students to start their careers in Canada. ILAC is always evolving, working to improve their academic programs and expanding. And this week, ILAC Education Group's biggest expansion yet was announced with the addition of Tamwood International College.
Tamwood is an educational institution that has been in existence since 1993 and has 4 campuses: 2 in Vancouver and one each in Toronto and Whistler. Over the years, Tamwood has made a difference in the lives of over 80,000 students and its award-winning programs, including English as a second language (ESL), Career College courses, youth camps and Work and Travel.
Tamwood International College co-founders Matt Collingwood and Tamsin Plaxton have many years of experience in education and the development of an educational institution. Together with the other members of the Tamwood team, they have built a strong brand and an educational institution whose primary goal has always been to achieve excellence and provide the best possible service to its students.
Therefore, Tamwood College joining ILAC Education Group can be called a merger of two leaders in their field, which promises to bear fruit.
"The partnership brings together two of the best brands in our industry, giving our students and agents more quality choices than ever before. We will continue to build upon the strong Tamwood brand as we look for opportunities to accelerate growth utilizing our combined sales, marketing and operational resources," shared ILAC CEO John DeFranco.
DeFranco also expressed confidence that the ILAC and Tamwood collaboration will provide teachers and staff at both institutions with additional opportunities for career growth and development.
Matt Collingwood and Tamsin Plaxton will both have positions within ILAC Education Group through this merger. Matt will join the ILAC leadership team as president of Tamwood and ILAC International College. Tamsin, on the other hand, will serve as a strategic advisor to ILAC Education Group and continue to represent the Tamwood brand.
Collingwood and Plaxton were optimistic about Tamwood becoming part of the ILAC Education Group, noting that by becoming part of the ILAC family, their brainchild has broken new ground.
