Recently appointed French Ambassador to Jamaica Olivier Guyonvarch is urging Jamaicans to consider France in their quest for tertiary education outside of the island.
For decades Jamaicans have been heading to universities overseas with the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom being the destinations of choice. Cuba, Russia, China, Japan and many eastern European countries, including Ukraine, have also been selected by Jamaicans for their higher education studies.
The Ambassador, in his first full media interview since taking up the post in Jamaica, has declared that his country can provide tertiary opportunities for Jamaicans in several subject areas at more affordable rates than some of the traditional destinations.
He further discusses:
– The Jamaica-France relations
– His experience here on the island since the installment
– What is he looking forward to for the rest of his tenure
– Plans for Education
