The Education Media Unit (EMU) has a new home.

The Ministry of Education, Vocational Training, Innovation, Digital Transformation and Information says the unit, which serves as the ministry’s official media and communications arm, has officially relocated. It is now operating from the first floor of the Medix Building on Grenville Street, Kingstown.

In a press release issued to stakeholders, media partners and the public, the ministry said the EMU was previously housed in the Curriculum Development Unit building on Richmond Hill Road. Its new office is the space formerly occupied by the Accreditation Unit.

The move has also changed where the Accreditation Unit can be found. That unit, which falls under the Department of Post-Secondary and Higher Education, is now located in Carlos Williams’ building in Frenches, close to the Ever-Ready Funeral Home. Members of the public who need to reach it can call 456-1111, extension 5046, or email svgnabunit@gmail.com.

According to the ministry, the EMU will keep up its work from the new location. That includes serving the education community, streamlining public relations, improving media production for learning and helping information flow more freely.

The unit’s phone contact has changed. It can now be reached by telephone at 1 784 451-2420. The emails, however, remain the same at edumediaunit@gov.vc and edumediaunit@gmail.com. The ministry is also encouraging the public to follow the EMU on Facebook, Instagram and YouTube for updates, event coverage and highlights from across the education sector.

Media houses and members of the public who want more information have been asked to contact the ministry’s Communications Lead, Marla Nanton-James.

The ministry thanked the public for its continued support. It said it looks forward to welcoming visitors to the EMU’s new office.
