Kaieteur News – With just one week to go for the submission of applications, the Guyana Online Academy of Learning’s (GOAL) staff is currently processing over five thousand, five hundred (5,500) applications that were received manually and electronically from the 10 administrative regions.
At the conclusion of the exercise, 4,500 scholarships will be awarded to Guyanese from a wide range of programmes including Management, Social Services, Science, Security and Tourism.

Prospective applicants are also encouraged to review their applications before submitting, and pay keen attention to the requisite academic qualifications for the course or programme, which they are interested in and applying for.
Persons can visit GOAL’s website: goal.edu.gy to apply online. Furthermore, applicants who are encountering difficulties with the electronic submission are asked to contact GOAL via email info@goal.edu.gy or call/WhatsApp 643-7783/687-6331 for assistance and guidance.
