History
RM Asia-Pacific emerged in the Australian marketplace in 1997, opening a Perth office in February 1999 after being awarded the SIS contract for the Department of Education and Training Western Australia (then named EDWA).
Since then, the company has flourished and now employs 50 staff across offices in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Wellington (NZ), servicing more than 4,000 schools across Australasia and in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Sinagpore and Taipei.
