Thailand education expo coming in October
TIECA (Thai International Educational Consultants Association) is Thailand’s only peak body of education agents. It provides quality assurance of more than 70 agent members and ensures high counselling standards for Thai students seeking to study abroad.
The 34th TIECA Study Abroad Expo will run in Bangkok in October, where education providers will meet prospective students and network with TIECA agents for future collaboration.
Jaruwan Pongjaruwat, ENZ’s Programme Manager for Thailand, says the TIECA expo is the best agent-led event in Thailand, making it important to have New Zealand representation.
“Having New Zealand institutions join this event shows New Zealand’s commitment to the Thai market. It’s also a good opportunity for institutions to expand their connections with TIECA agents and interact with students face-to-face – especially in Thailand where agents still play a major role,” says Jaruwan.
“TIECA Expo also runs seminars on the latest insights on the Thai market, providing useful recommendations for institutions to increase enrolments.”
The Expo’s primary focus is high schools, language schools, universities and exchange organisations from New Zealand, Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, the United States and many other countries.
The 2018 Expo had around 400 visitors; 60 percent were school students looking to study abroad, and 45 percent of this group would make a study travel decision within 1-2 years.
New Zealand institutions wanting to attend must download and complete an application form and submit it to manager@tieca.com.

Gold Standard for Education New Zealand
The Public Affairs Asia Gold Standard Awards celebrates and showcases the achievements of companies, governments, and diplomatic missions in the Asia Pacific region.
In Hong Kong to receive the award, Ziena Jalil, ENZ Regional Director for South and South East Asia said: “It’s fantastic to receive this recognition from industry peers against some very tough competition and for a campaign that has only really been running for a year.”
The awards attracted more than 200 entries and were presented at a gala ceremony attended by a host of senior professionals from corporate affairs, communications agencies, NGOs, the media and the diplomatic service.
“Our campaign aimed to build New Zealand’s reputation in India as a high quality education destination. It’s really exciting and satisfying to see the strategy translate into student numbers. India is now the fastest growing source of international students to New Zealand.”
The Think New: Think New Zealand campaign weaves together multiple strands of activity focused on three strategic themes: deepening government relations; targeted business development initiatives; and an intensive integrated PR and marketing campaign.
“Our strategy focused on consistent messaging and leveraging advocates across key states in India. The Think New brand launched in November 2013, introducing messaging and visuals focused on the concept of ‘new’ to better promote New Zealand.
“We also worked closely with other agencies including the New Zealand High Commission and Immigration New Zealand to support the messaging in-market. The changes to students’ work rights policy implemented in January 2014 were followed by joint ENZ/INZ communications in India creating greater awareness of the change,” said Ziena.
Recognising India and New Zealand’s shared love of cricket, popular Indian Premier League coach of the Chennai Super Kings and former New Zealand Black Caps cricket captain Stephen Fleming joined the campaign as a brand ambassador.
Stephen was integral in raising awareness through digital competitions, media events, scholarship announcements, school roadshows, education fairs and networking functions. He attracted thousands of potential students and stakeholders, taking the time to talk to people about the benefits of education in New Zealand
We worked to turn challenges into opportunities - during New Delhi’s summer heat and Mumbai’s monsoon, we took to the shopping malls with the Think New campaign, capturing the crowds as they escaped the weather.
Business development opportunities continue to be explored both in India and New Zealand with ENZ presenting regularly at industry conferences around India, sharing New Zealand’s strengths with key business people. Several new scholarships have been established for study in New Zealand, linked to post-study work options that will establish valuable connections between both countries.
Brand awareness has increased by 33 percent in India and New Zealand education featured in over 700 print and online media from October 2013 to July 2014.
Indian student numbers in 2013 increased for the first time in three years and student visas issued to Indian nationals increased 83 percent between January and July 2014.

From the CE: A transitional phase
First of all, a big thank you to everyone. Your insight and problem-solving on so many urgent matters, including student wellbeing and repatriation, has been invaluable.
I’d like to reflect quickly on how we’ve worked together so far. Our activities together represent just a beginning on the long road ahead. Within ENZ, we have:
- Created and administered the International Student Hardship Fund, which has allocated $1m to 105 providers and community organisations, assisting approximately 11,000 students.
- Created the Future Focused Programme and invested $1.2 million of reallocated government funds into the future of the industry to encourage innovation.
- Stood up cross-organisation teams within ENZ to focus on student wellbeing and support the repatriation of school-aged students.
- Communicated and engaged intensively with peak bodies, education providers, agents and in-market partners.
- Invested in NauMai NZ and increased our communications to students within New Zealand
- Continued to maintain visibility of New Zealand as a high quality study destination, and
- We’re continuing to work closely with other agencies, who have optimised policy settings to cushion the sector from the impacts of COVID-19 as far as possible.
Of course, a crucial step of the international education sector will be bringing in students.
International students remain a priority group in the government’s planning for any managed border entry agreements. We’re looking forward to welcoming international students into New Zealand again, but we need to make sure we do so in a way that is safe for everyone.
There are many details to be worked through, including practical quarantine and self-isolation arrangements, monitoring processes, and how the costs can be shared by those arriving.
As a result of this complexity, Minister of Education Chris Hipkins has advised our sector leaders that international students will not be returning to New Zealand in July and August this year. He hopes that we will be able to safely welcome small groups of students by the end of the year and begin building up towards 2021.
We need to have and retain public confidence in the managed border re-entry process, before we welcome cohorts of students to New Zealand.
Finally, our work towards a sector recovery strategy continues and I look forward to sharing more with you this July.
He waka eke noa (we’re all in this together).
Ngā mihi,
Grant McPherson
Chief Executive

July update from Immigration New Zealand
Visa processing update (to 11 July 2023)
Since New Zealand’s international borders reopened in August 2022, Immigration New Zealand (INZ) has received 43,541 student visa applications from international students outside of New Zealand. We have completed 37,916 of these applications with 32,457 approved.
Our recent processing times for international student visa applications are published on our website. These are updated by month: Visa processing times for international students
Apply early
Unfortunately we have received many applications submitted only a few weeks before the student intends to commence study in New Zealand.
Students should apply for their visas around four months ahead of intended travel, and at least two months ahead of intended travel. We cannot prioritise late applications ahead of students who have applied in good time. Unfortunately, some students who apply late may miss their start date.
Please remember that students should not confirm travel bookings until the visa is granted.

Supporting international education mobility in China with Tourism NZ and Air New Zealand collaboration
ENZ and Tourism NZ Launch the "New Zealand Study Tour Promotion Alliance" Initiative in South China
Tourism New Zealand and ENZ have been working closely together since 2020 to promote study tour programs for Chinese students and their families. This collaboration has had a positive impact, with a growing interest in short-term studies and family tours to New Zealand during the Chinese summer holiday period (this July and August). To further strengthen relationships with Chinese business partners, Tourism New Zealand recently launched the "New Zealand Study Tour Promotion Alliance" initiative, with support from ENZ.

The purpose of the "New Zealand Study Tour Promotion Alliance" is to tap into the potential for growth in this segment post COVID-19. The initiative offers students a short-term study tour experience, providing them with a glimpse into the New Zealand educational system and lifestyle. The alliance consists of ten selected members, including key partners such as K-12 schools and educational organisations directly or indirectly associated with K-12 schools in South China. These members include two provincial-level international education associations representing the public and international school sectors, an international school networking platform, and seven Chinese international/private schools. All ten members of the alliance have either sent students to Aotearoa New Zealand or have committed to promoting New Zealand as a study tour destination in the next three years. They will receive direct or indirect support from both Tourism New Zealand and Education New Zealand.
The official launch of the initiative took place on 21st June, with over 80 participants from the education and tourism industries invited. Rachel Crump, the New Zealand Consul-General in Guangzhou, officiated the ceremony and expressed her excitement about this cross-industry cooperation between Tourism New Zealand and Education New Zealand.
Rachel said “I have often participated in Tourism New Zealand and Education New Zealand events, but this is the first time I’ve participated in a joint event. This type of cross-industry cooperation is new and significant for both agencies.”
Michael Zhang, ENZ's Regional Director - Greater China, also said "As we reconnect following the three years of the pandemic, we invite Chinese students and their families, to come back to New Zealand and become an important bridge between our two countries again.”

The initiative focuses on promoting a two to four-week New Zealand short-term study experience, which combines classroom study with a sightseeing holiday component. During the Chinese summer holiday, students attend one or two weeks of classroom study in a New Zealand school while their parents enjoy a holiday in the country. After the study part of the tour, families have the option to spend additional weeks in New Zealand. The initiative is expected to attract over 1,000 students plus their families to New Zealand during this July and August Chinese summer holiday period.
After the launch ceremony, the guests mixed and mingled, chatting and networking with each other
ENZ and Air New Zealand to develop strategic partnership for growth of international student sector in China
Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao and Air New Zealand have pledged to work together to develop a strategic partnership for the international student sector in China.
ENZ’s Felix Ye moderated the panel discussion with the Alliance members
The initiative was launched with the signing of a Statement of Intent at a special ceremony in Shanghai which was witnessed by Minister of Tourism, Hon Peeni Henare in Shanghai on 30 June during the Prime Minister’s Trade Delegation to China.
Both parties will seek to take advantage of existing cooperation and provide a framework for further potential areas to be developed.
These could include joint promotional and marketing efforts in China, as well as supporting student mobility from New Zealand-China partnerships, joint programmes, and institution to institution co-operation.

Schools' campaign kicks off
The campaign was launched in Japan in mid-July, and in the remaining markets at the end of July.
The campaign targets parents who are thinking of sending their children overseas for high school. Through short video clips, students share what it’s like to study and live in New Zealand, parents share what it’s like to send their child here, and New Zealand international support staff at high schools talk about how they support their international students during their studies.
The campaign will run through Google and Yahoo! networks, and in media specific to each country. Parents can click through to a dedicated landing page to watch the videos, read further information and then follow a link to a local New Zealand Specialist Agent (NZSA). They can also choose to download a PDF of the key information and a list of their local agents.
ENZ has kept the NZSA network in each country informed about this campaign, which runs until 29 September in all markets.
The campaign material features the refreshed ‘Study in New Zealand’ student campaign, which showcases to potential students and their parents that you get more from a New Zealand education: a better learning experience, greater lifestyle opportunities and the foundations for a promising future and career.
ENZ is trialling the 'Study in New Zealand' student campaign at events, fairs and in marketing campaigns through to December 2013.

Korea looks to Christchurch and Canterbury
On 27-29 July, ChristchurchNZ led the group promotion that included an agent seminar and a student recruitment fair.
The promotion was planned to follow the success of a Korean reality TV show that featured a week in the school life of Korean celebrities’ children at Halswell School in Christchurch, which showcased Christchurch’s education system and lifestyle.
ENZ Senior Market Development Manager – South Korea, Kay Lee, said the promotions were a wonderful opportunity for Korean agents, parents and students to learn about the Christchurch’s globally connected economy, 21st century education system and lifestyle, particularly highlighting the brand new city.
“Participating education providers did a fantastic job sharing with agents how Christchurch is the world’s newest city, alive with opportunities for young people to try new things, explore their potential and discover who they want to be,” Kay said.
On 28-29 July, the group, including University of Canterbury, Lincoln University, Ara Institute of Canterbury, Riccarton High School, Middleton Grange School, Kirkwood Intermediate School and Villa Maria College participated in a two-day, agent-led student recruitment fair to meet prospective Korean students and their parents.
The group was also representing Avonside High School, Casebrook Intermediate School, Cashmere High School, Christ’s College, Chisnallwood Intermediate, Cobham Intermediate School, Darfiled High School, Halswell School, Hillmorton High School, Papanui High School, Rangiora High School and St Bede’s High School in Christchurch.
ChristchurchNZ International Education Programme Manager, Bree Loverich, said the fair sent an all-round positive signal for education providers regarding this market.
“Agents, parents and students did not ask questions about the past, rather they were excited about the opportunity provided by our future-focused city. As a result, our agent partner reported that they took 22 pre-deposits on courses in Christchurch alone. After this trip, we are confident that we will see more Koreans students in our city and region,” Bree said.
