Education Malta is a not for profit foundation set up as a result of a public-private partnership between the Ministry for Education  and the Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry. Education Malta also works in close collaboration with Malta Further and Higher Education Authority (MFHEA).

In recognition of the important role that education has to play, Education Malta endeavours to assist educational entities established in the country to attract international students to study in Malta. It also acts as a point of contact for the provision of information and guidance that may be required.
