Euroasia On The Move
Euroasia, New Zealand's
leading private provider of foreign language courses
and
cross-cultural consulting services, is planning a move.
Euroasia
announced on Tuesday that the company intends to
expand capacity and serve
its clients better by moving
its head office and Auckland operation to
signficantly
larger premises at 10 Titoki Street, Parnell, in July
2008.
The new location at the Auckland Domain is very
central, and easily
accessible by clients from all over
Auckland.
Euroasia currently operates nationwide, with
face-to-face classes held in
Auckland and Christchurch.
The Auckland head office is currently located at
100
Franklin Road, Ponsonby. The new premises in Parnell
incorporate a
heritage building with 13 classrooms
looking out to the Auckland Museum, and
will be shared
with global education provider, Kaplan Aspect.
Classrooms
are well-appointed and spacious, and clients
will have access to an
attractive garden and outdoor
terrace. There is also greater scope for
social
functions and networking.
"Euroasia is committed to
providing a wide range of top-quality foreign
language
courses to New Zealanders, and this move will enhance our
ability
to do so," said Euroasia Director, Kenneth Leong.
"Moving from 6 classrooms
to 13 increases our potential
capacity to 700 students, and will enable us
to offer a
greater range of services in Auckland."
Euroasia is
aggressively pursuing growth opportunities as other
providers
scale back operations. "This is the ideal time
for us to be gaining market
share as New Zealanders'
interest in foreign languages and cultures
heightens,"
said Mr. Leong. "We are seeing more New Zealanders travel
and
do business overseas; this is translating into
unprecendented levels of
business for Euroasia".
Euroasia is assisting a number of state schools with
their second language
programmes, as well as continuing
to advise a number of businesses and
government agencies
on their language, culture and translation
requirements.
Euroasia's foreign language classes have
been attended by over 2,500 New
Zealanders in the past 5
years, with over 400 enrolments so far this
year.
Euroasia courses in Auckland and Christchurch are
available through evening
classes, in-company tuition or
online learning. Also offered to businesses
is
cross-cultural consulting - working through the issues
raised by dealing
with people from different cultural
backgrounds.
