Andrew Lauman’s Experience

Owner and Founder

Gateways International Services

(Privately Held; Education Management industry)

December 2006 — Present (3 years 2 months)

Our vision is to offer a learning centre that creates exciting and fun learning opportunities. Out of our centre, we offer job opportunities and consulting solutions to clients and businesses.

"Our main goal is to see that cultural differences should not separate us from each other, but rather cultural diversity brings a collective strength that benefits all of humanity."
~ Robert Alan

This learning centre has become a hub of creativity and innovation for the community by offering science, math, language, ESL and career development courses. As these courses continue to be developed, we will continue to look for “gateways” into international markets for “recruiting” and “consulting” avenues.
