Corporate Capabilities
Global Education Services, Inc., (GESI) headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, was established in spring 2022 to nurture students to achieve their higher education aspirations while serving as a catalyst for campus international enrollment and joint partnership initiatives.
​
GESI leads efforts for partner campuses, membership organizations, and international agencies to collaborate with global employers to increase internships, practical training, and employment for students and graduates.
​
In spring 2022, GESI selected India as its first target country for outreach based on the new 2020 India National Education Policy that welcomes international education exchanges and linkages. GESI focuses on Tier II and Tier III regions to provide access to deserving first generation students seeking higher education abroad. In fall 2022, GESI and its India subsidiary – Alpesa Education Services - began assisting U.S. campuses with customized tours to India to recruit students, develop joint academic partnership linkages, and prospect to establish branch campuses to expand access and outreach. By fall 2023, GESI enrolled nine (9) students and registered 50 students to be admitted to U.S. universities. By fall 2024, GESI is poised to operate regional offices in Asia, Africa, Europe, as well as Latin America and the Caribbean.

In collaboration with authorized campus partners, GESI leadership presents at various annual forums and conferences around the world in support of international education.
