Join us for this informative session that will provide you with a holistic view of Australia’s international education sector, and introduce you to the main data sets used in international education, both in Australia and globally.

You will be introduced to valuable tools and resources that will assist you in keeping your knowledge current, as well as supporting you to ensure that the conference won’t be a blur of unfamiliar acronyms and terminology.

The session will provide an opportunity to discuss data which is regularly released by the Australian government, as well as other data sources from Australia and around the world.

The session will include afternoon tea and networking.

It is a great opportunity for first-timers and newcomers to meet and connect with other delegates before the conference officially kicks off, but this session is also a great refresher for anyone who works in international education.

It doesn’t matter whether you are from admissions, student support, recruitment, mobility or transnational education… Everyone is welcome!

Learning objectives:

Participants will learn about:

  • the origins and status of the international education sector globally
  • the challenges and opportunities for international education in Australia
  • the regulatory environment in Australia and the key ministers and peak bodies
  • valuable tools and resources to assist in keeping your knowledge current.
