Why do we do it?​

We at GradSquare believe that education is the best way to empower oneself. Higher education, beyond a basic bachelor’s degree, has become the industry norm and anything less severely restricts the professional growth of individuals. With the education industry constantly evolving, aspirants can often lose track of the opportunities available and get disillusioned when education does not fit in with their interests. We believe that every person has their own strengths and can shine when provided the perfect platform, from which to launch or elevate their career to new heights. We find the experience of generating awareness amongst our students about the different career paths available and helping them succeed academically in their chosen field, to build a strong foundation for their career, extremely gratifying.

We are a team of passionate individuals, holding post graduate degrees in professional streams, who have studied and worked across multiple geographies globally. Having a combined experience of over 50 years in the education sector, the GradSquare team works dedicatedly to help the youth achieve their maximum professional potential.
