Global student accommodation provider StudentRoomStay (SRS) has announced its recent partnership with Student Parachute, a protection and evacuation membership with geolocation tracking for international students.
Student Parachute is a tech-friendly membership that protects international students when the unexpected strikes during their time overseas. All international students will have automatic access to the Student Parachute membership through the StudentRoomStay platform.
Adam Lee, CEO and Co-Founder of SRS, acknowledged that StudentRoomStay is the first global accommodation provider to introduce this type of initiative with such dedication to student safety.
“Both StudentRoomStay and Student Parachute have consistently prioritized an unwavering commitment to the safety and well-being of international students,” said Lee.
“By providing personalized accommodation and real-time emergency response services in one primary location, we allow students to enjoy and focus on their study abroad experience with confidence that we are always looking out for their safety and protection.”
CEO of Student Parachute, Carol Tokody, stated that recent global events have proved the importance of providing international students with the emergency support and assistance they need when the unexpected happens.
Tokody said, “This partnership aims to eliminate the gray areas that many students are left with when using any other accommodation provider or student health product.
“This integration will not only provide students with a solid foundation for safety and success, but will allow their families to have peace of mind no matter where their loved one chooses to study.”
StudentRoomStay.com and the StudentRoomStay app will be available to students worldwide in 2020, starting with an initial launch in the United States. This will quickly be followed by operation launches in Australia, Canada and the rest of the globe.
