As a school that is always ahead of the digital curve, GSIS continues to set the standard for equipping students with the skills they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
A Visionary Approach to Digital Education

The conversation centered on integrating digital education to provide students with practical skills in technology, business, and innovation—ensuring they are well-prepared for modern career opportunities.
GSIS recognizes the growing demand for digital literacy and technical skills in today’s workforce and is actively working to create opportunities for its students through innovative partnerships. The interest in DSA’s digital training programs highlights the school’s commitment to fostering a globally competitive learning environment.
