Dr Dorish Chitson has over 25 years of experience in the education field - she has worked at most Loreto Convents, at the Queen Elisabeth College and has set up the Social Studies Department at the Bocage International School. At the tertiary level, she has collaborated with the University of Mauritius in various projects and presented research papers at international conferences. She has also carried out research for the Mahatma Gandhi Institute on a Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship from the Tertiary Education Commission [TEC]. Her research work on the "Social History of Labour laws in Mauritius" has been published in the Journal of Mauritian Studies. Since 2002, she has been running her own enterprise as Managing Director of the education consultancy agency, OVERSEAS EDUCATION CENTRE [OVEC].
Because she loves working with young people, she decided to give free counseling so as to help students in that crucial decision of choosing a course and career- she finds this spiritually very rewarding. OVEC started in 2002 with only one university. Slowly, OVEC made its way, building credibility, trust and a brand name that is today well known in the education sector. OVEC collaborates with more than 90 universities and other education Institutions on all continents.
