• Market reports moving to IntelliLab

  ENZ has previously published information about its priority markets on enz.govt.nz.

  However, ENZ has since removed these and replaced them with the in-depth Economist Intelligence Unit country forecasting reports, available on IntelliLab.

  Andrew McPhee, ENZ’s Intelligence Manager, said the market reports provide useful insights for industry players.

  “The forecasting reports are an independent, specialist and unbiased perspective on our key markets, and cover everything from a country’s demography, business environment, political outlook, economic outlook and market opportunities,” said Andrew.

  “The main reports are updated annually, with six monthly updates also provided – making them a current and reliable source of market information.”

  Reports are available for Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Europe, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Vietnam and the US.

  ENZ market factsheets are also being completed, with India and China already uploaded, and more to come in the near future.

  The reports on IntelliLab are only available to registered users, who must be New Zealand education providers or officials.

  “Registration also provides access to other great reports too, with new research continually uploaded,” said Andrew.

• A taste of New Zealand

  Kicking off on 20 May, proceedings got underway with an invitation-only event, hosted by New Zealand’s Ambassador to the Philippines, David Strachan.

  ENZ engaged a number of successful New Zealand alumni for media interviews and delivered a keynote presentation to a highly engaged crowd at the Glorietta Mall, Makati City venue.

  

  The ENZ booth was particularly busy over the three days. A number of prospective students came prepared with specific questions, with many focusing on postgraduate study options.

  The Experience NZ event also coincided with the celebration of 50 years of diplomatic ties between New Zealand and the Philippines.

  This event was the latest in a series of in-market ENZ activities in the Philippines. It followed a successful agent seminar in Manila earlier this year.

  A second agent seminar is being held in Cebu on 14 July and is now open for registration.

• ENZ workshops in September

  

  Workshop 1: Students’ view from their window travelling along the digital freeway

  Technology is changing the way education providers engage with potential students. Placing you in the driver’s seat on the digital freeway, you will experience first-hand what international students see as they race toward their destination. As with any road trip, there are detours, attractions and temptations that can change the direction.

  This workshop will use a segmentation model to identify what tools are available and what skills are required, and give examples of how education providers, at various stages of digital maturity, can leverage them for success.

  Target audience: Participants involved in international strategy, marketing, recruitment and admissions.

  Outcomes:

  • Identify how your organisation is segmented and what tools are appropriate
  • Gain exposure to example initiatives that best-practice providers have used to improve their student recruitment efficiency
  • Connect with other practitioners about their experiences and identify opportunities for further exploration. 

   

  

  Workshop 2: Beyond the great firewall: social media in China

  Coming to grips with digital and social media in China is no easy task. Between VPNs, firewalls and the influx of local alternative platforms, it can be a difficult market to gain cut-through.  

  This workshop will empower participants to get beyond the great firewall and embrace digital and social media platforms in China. It will showcase best practice case studies and how best to engage prospective students.

  Target audience: Marketing and recruitment professionals and student services staff. It is best suited to those who already have some knowledge of Chinese social media. 

  Outcomes: 

  • Learn how to incorporate Chinese social media into your wider recruitment strategy 
  • Gain an understanding of the financial input required 
  • Learn how to integrate your campaigns with agents.

   

  These workshops will be available in:

  Christchurch – 11 September 2018
  Venue: ChristchurchNZ, Level 3, 101 Cashel Street

  Wellington – 12 September 2018
  Venue: ENZ, Level 5 Lambton House, 160 Lambton Quay

  Auckland – 13 September 2018
  Venue: ATEED, Level 8, 139 Quay St, Auckland 

   

  Workshop 1 will run in the mornings from 9am-12:30pm, followed by Workshop 2 from 1:30pm- 5:00pm.

  The registration fee for a single workshop is $375, or you can register for both workshops for $500.

   

  These workshops follow a series of well-reviewed workshops delivered by HECG across New Zealand earlier this year.

  Feedback from previous HECG workshops:

  "This is the most useful workshop I have attended in a long time. I will be able to take back a lot of ideas that can be applied at my institution. Very keen to delve deeper into some of the topics further. Great presenters!"

  OrbitProtect  

  At OrbitProtect, we provide travel insurance for international students so they can focus on enjoying their travel and education, knowing that if something goes wrong, they can access the support they need.      

  With affordable and easy-to-understand plans which include excess-free cover for medical care, property cover, multilingual customer support and more – our international student insurance is designed to meet the needs of students, ensuring that they receive the necessary assistance and support during their time in New Zealand.  

  We know that international students face a unique set of challenges and considerations, such as navigating a new healthcare system, dealing with medical emergencies or unexpected events, all while tackling language barriers and being away from their support networks.       

  That’s why we’re excited to sponsor the 30th NZIEC KI TUA – Visit stall #4 to take our interactive Health & Travel quiz to be in to win a $500 Prezzy Card. For more information on our products, go to orbitprotect.com.

• NZIEC 2018: Theme and call for speakers

  ENZ warmly welcomes presentation proposals from across the global international education industry for the 27^th NZIEC. Submissions are welcome on any topic relating to the international education industry. Check out the guidelines for presenters and submit your proposal on the NZIEC website. Our call for speakers closes on Friday16 March 2018.

  Conference theme: Inspiring Global Citizens 

  ‘We must no longer consider ourselves
  as citizens of the cities or countries in which we live,
  but we must consider ourselves citizens of the globe.’

  In this time of rapid change and globalisation, international education has a vital role in equipping our society with the skills needed for the future. New Zealand is ideally placed to address this need. We rank first in The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Worldwide Educating for the FutureIndex for our ability to equip our young leaders with the critical thinking, collaboration and global awareness skills they need to succeed in an increasingly internationalised and technology-driven world.
  
  The 27th New Zealand International Education Conference and Expo (NZIEC) will explore how international education can build on this strength to equip and inspire our students, educators and professionals to become the new wave of global influencers and leaders. Our international education industry can help change the world.

  NZIEC 2018 will explore the following questions:

  1. How do we inspire and develop the next generation of global citizens?
  2. How can we harness technology to enhance our international education marketing, offering and practices?
  3. How can we forge leading-edge education products, services and technologies that will be in-demand in existing and future global markets?
  4. How can we connect the value of international education to our diverse communities?
  5. How can we work together to ensure international education contributes to New Zealand’s future development? 

  NZIEC 2018 will feature five breakout streams. Check them out here.
