Our Story
EMG School Placement was founded by educators and expats who
saw an extreme need for professional educational support for
families relocating with school children. We also wanted
to address misconceptions such as: one school fits all,
research on the Internet will do, no need to offer this
benefit to all employees. destination providers can find
the right school.

Consulting, with a clear vision to grow and assist
families around the globe in finding internal schools in Germany
and the Netherlands. Five years later we have become a global educational consulting firm offering services on four continents.
