Strong interest in Aotearoa New Zealand from Latin America
Students ranked New Zealand second highest as a destination of interest for a future international education programme. The top factors influencing their decisions post-COVID-19 were visa processing, accommodation costs and the academic quality of the institution.
The top decision-making factors for agents were course costs, border settings and airfare costs.
New Zealand ranked highly for competence in managing the pandemic and health control, but it ranked fourth for agents on adequate infrastructure for the reception of international students in the near future. Both agents and students said face-to-face was the preferred mode of study.
Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao sponsored the survey run by the Brazilian Education and Language Travel Association (BELTA) across Latin America, to measure the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the international education sector.
ENZ’s Latin America team shared the BELTA Latin America 2021 survey results with around 50 industry representatives and agents at a virtual forum in December 2021.
The event also celebrated ENZ’s Recognised Agencies (ENZRA) for their contribution to maintaining the visibility of New Zealand’s education brand during the pandemic.

The Education New Zealand Journalism Fellowship for US students
An independent report from the Economist Intelligence Unit recently ranked New Zealand’s education system as the best in the world for preparing students for the future.
All eight of our universities are ranked in the top 2.5% of the world (QS World University Rankings 2018) and New Zealand has the seventh highest performing graduates in the world, ahead of graduates from many elite universities in the US, Canada and England (2016 OECD Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies).
Education New Zealand will work with recipients to structure a programme of interviews and visits that most interest you, and can help suggest potential story ideas and angles and interviewees.
We will cover the cost of return economy class flights from the US, internal travel within New Zealand, shared meals and accommodation. Recipients will also have the opportunity to experience some uniquely New Zealand cultural and environmental visits.
Students will be expected to produce at least two news stories or one feature article, to be published in the US.
The student who is most successful in placing their stories will also be awarded the prestigious Top Education New Zealand Journalism Scholar award, and US$500.
Who can apply?
Students currently enrolled in US institutions or recent graduates working for media outlets. Applicants who are not working for publications should either be enrolled in a journalism programme and/or write for media outlets. Successful applicants must be available to travel to New Zealand for a week in June, 2018.

New campaign focuses on new paths
The integrated global campaign aims to engage ENZ’s existing audiences across our database and social media channels, and to raise brand awareness with new audiences, particularly reaching those who are actively seeking out information about studying in New Zealand.
Kaylee Butters, ENZ’s Director, Brand & Design, says New Futures Need New Paths builds on the messaging introduced in the 2018 Future Proof campaigns, while aligning with ENZ’s refreshed Think New brand strategy, which will be launched later this year.
“Our overarching campaign message is that a New Zealand education provides students with the skills required to excel in their future careers and create a positive impact in their world,” said Kaylee.
The campaign draws on New Zealand’s strengths in educating students for the Future.
In both 2017 and 2018, New Zealand has been ranked among the top three countries in the world in the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Educating for the Future Index.
“Our teaching style and learning environment, alongside our unique cultural values, make us the perfect destination for students who think differently and wish to forge their own paths,” said Kaylee.
The 2018 World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report highlights analytical thinking and innovation, active learning and learning strategies, creativity, originality and initiative as some of the top skills that will be in demand in the near future.
To support the campaign, ENZ is creating three compelling hero videos that speak to the campaign theme, featuring three international PhD students with visions of a more sustainable future. Conducting research in the fields of marine biology, conservation and renewable energy, their paths have all brought them to New Zealand because of the unique opportunities they have here that will help them pursue their goals.
“We encourage education providers to use the campaign assets and key campaign messages/themes in your marketing activity,” said Kaylee.
Videos, images and infographics as well as tips on how to leverage this campaign will feature on The Brand Lab for New Zealand education providers and ENZ Recognised Agencies to use in marketing activity, including on websites, social media and at events.

Girls in Tech plugs women into a career with computers
This year’s lucky recipients – the top 18 out of 436 total applicants – will have the opportunity to participate in fully funded courses with Hacktiv8, an Indonesian coding bootcamp and training provider.
“We are so glad to be able to offer further learning opportunities to women in Indonesia who are either already in tech or thinking about entering this fast-growing industry,” ENZ Programme Manager, Naluri Bella Wati, said.
It’s the sister initiative to ENZ and Girls in Tech Indonesia’s Arisan Digital 2020, a series of workshops delivered to members of Girls in Tech Indonesia and members of the public throughout last year.
The workshops featured top New Zealand academics and covered a range of topics, including cyber security, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, big data, and more. A total of 1,141 women across 20 cities in Indonesia participated in the hybrid and then virtual sessions.
“This industry-specific partnership with Girls in Tech allowed us to accomplish two key things: position New Zealand as a world leader in the area of tech education, and second, to showcase New Zealand’s unique teaching style in an innovative, offshore format,” Desiree said.
Both Arisan 2020 and the Girls in Tech Scholarship are part of the government’s Recovery Plan for International Education, under the internationalisation section of the ‘strengthening the system’ stream.

International student enrolments top 59,000 for the first eight months of 2023
The Minister for Tertiary Education and Skills, Hon Penny Simmonds, today released international student enrolment data for the first eight months of 2023. From January to August 2023 there were 59,306 international student enrolments* with New Zealand education providers, a 43% increase compared to the full year in 2022.
Minister Simmonds said, “Over 59,000 enrolments, in just eight months, confirms that international students continue to find New Zealand an attractive education destination. And for the university sector with 27,535 students enrolled, where a proportion of learners may study for a number of years, there is a solid base of students from which to grow.”
International student enrolments have grown in all subsectors except wānanga. Comparing 2023 to 2022, English Language Schools have seen the greatest percentage increase in international enrolments, increasing by 347% from 1,565 to 7,001. Schools reported a 114% increase from 5,925 to 12,662. Te Pūkenga, a 32% increase from 4,955 to 6,560. Universities, a 15% increase from 24,040 to 27,535 and Private Training Establishments (funded and unfunded), a 13% increase from 5,000 to 5,671.
Universities and schools remained New Zealand’s two largest subsectors for international students.
As with all New Zealand’s competitors, China is the largest source market for international students. In the reporting period, China was 36% of enrolments, with India (10%), Japan (10%), South Korea (5%), and Thailand (4%) in the top five.
Minister Simmonds said, “It is a Government priority to diversify our recruitment efforts for international students with the aim of reaching a broader spectrum of countries.”
Final enrolment numbers for 2023 will be available shortly.

How New Zealand education compares around the world
Education at a Glance provides comparable national statistics measuring the state of education worldwide. The report analyses the education systems of 34 OECD member countries, as well as Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Saudi Arabia and South Africa. Most of the recent data in the report relates to 2011.
The findings show New Zealand is performing well.
In terms of international education, key findings include:
-
New Zealand has the 11th largest market in absolute market share terms (at 1.7 percent), about the same as last year, but much higher than its share in 2000 (0.4 percent)
-
In 2011, we ranked fourth in terms of proportion of tertiary-level students who were international (16 percent). In particular, we had the highest proportion of diploma-level students who were international (at 21 percent ), and the fifth highest (with 13 percent ) at degree level
-
The level of international doctorate students has continued its significant rise since 2005 (since the introduction of domestic-fees policy). Nearly 40 percent of doctorate-level students were international in 2011 (the third highest level after UK and Switzerland).
The report shows that New Zealand is:
-
investing 7.3 percent of its GDP in education - the seventh highest in the OECD
-
·investing 20 percent of all public expenditure in education, which is the second highest percentage in the OECD
-
in the top third of countries for participation in early childhood education - 95 percent of four year olds enrolled in 2011
-
in the top 10 of the OECD for the highest proportion of tertiary qualified adults, with 39 percent of 25 to 64 year-olds and 47 percent of 25 to 34 year-olds in New Zealand having a diploma or higher qualification
-
increasing significantly the number of 15 to 19 year olds enrolled in study - 81.5 percent in 2011, up from 74 percent in 2008.

Building links with Colombian scholarship agency
COLFUTURO is a public/private partnership agency tasked with assisting the brightest young Colombians to pursue postgraduate studies overseas.
Each university showcased its distinctive strengths during the visit and have all expressed keen interest in working with COLFUTURO to receive top Colombian students.
Jerónimo was impressed with the quality of our universities, and in particular, the attractiveness of New Zealand’s PhD programmes, which he identified as holding great potential for growth for New Zealand in the Colombian market.
During the trip, Jerónimo stressed the importance of people-to-people connections in developing links with COLFUTURO – something he regarded as particular success of the visit.
He also stressed that COLFUTURO is different from most scholarship programmes in that:
-
it carefully matches quality students with quality faculties
-
it supports study in all subject areas
-
an unlimited number of students can apply to any one institution
Although COLFUTURO does not directly influence where students study, they do have an Academic Advisory Centre where students can research potential study destinations. It is here that institutions can provide targeted information to potential COLFUTURO students.
COLFUTURO also has a service for self-funded students to look at English study abroad options. Agreements with English language centres within a number of New Zealand universities are under discussion.
COLFUTURO operates a talent recruitment programme whereby it selects high-achieving students from top Colombian universities and supports them to become COLFUTURO scholarship recipients. It also helps them access funding from other sources. ENZ will talk with these students while attending the Latin American and Caribbean Higher Education Conference in Barranquilla, Colombia in mid-November this year.

PM’s Scholarships for Asia announced
The PMSA is an outbound scholarship programme, with funding of $9 million over five years provided in Budget 2013 as part of the Government's Internationally Focused Growth Package.
This first round sees 89 of New Zealand's outstanding students selected to attend some of the top universities in Asia. Successful scholarship recipients for this first round include a Bachelor of Science student from Victoria University who will study at Osaka University for two trimesters, a Bachelor of Design (Hons) student from Massey University who will study for one semester at NanyangTechnological University in Singapore.
Students will gain an international education experience, helping them to develop skills to prosper in the global economy, operate comfortably in different countries and cultures, and increase our people-to-people links with the world.
Scholarship recipients will bring back new ideas and develop a deeper understanding of other cultures, and while away, will act as ambassadors for New Zealand, helping to promote the quality of our education system.
The scholarships will also help us develop deeper links with some of the top education institutions in Asia, and help build networks with our key Asian trading partners.
Education New Zealand (ENZ), who is managing this outbound scholarship programme, has been working closely with all our universities to ensure the success of this first selection round.
Selections were made by a panel made up of members from the Asia New Zealand Foundation, Universities New Zealand, New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and ENZ.
Applications for the 2014/15 rounds of the Prime Minister's Scholarships for Asia will open in January 2014.

PM’s Scholarships for Asia announced
The Prime Minister’s Scholarships for Asia cover overseas study, research or internships ranging from six week to two years at undergraduate or postgraduate level at top Asian institutions.
At an event to mark the programme’s first year, Prime Minister John Key and Tertiary Education, Skills and Employment Minister Steven Joyce congratulated recipients.
Successful recipients include a student from Otago University, who will study chemistry and pharmacology at the National University of Singapore, and a group from the New Zealand Institute of Fashion Technology who will deepen their design and manufacturing knowledge working on a collaborative project with Indian students at a partner institution in Tamil Nadu.
The inaugural awards were made in December 2013, with many recipients still completing their studies throughout Asia. This next round of scholarships will enable 103 people to study overseas.
Peter Bull, Education New Zealand’s General Manager International, says the scholarship programme was established to give New Zealanders the opportunity to experience what it's like to operate in a different country and culture, and build all important people-to-people networks with our trading partners.
“Listening to returned students talk about their experiences; it’s clear it’s an opportunity that’s had a significant impact on those involved. One recipient got in touch recently to report her experience studying in Hong Kong had an immediate impact – helping her to secure a job with a top law firm who were very interested in her overseas experience.”
“I’m delighted at how quickly people have leaped at this opportunity to develop their international outlook and act as ambassadors for New Zealand education in parts of the world where there’s generally very low awareness about our country, let alone our way of thinking, learning or teaching.”
Mr Bull says the scholarships demonstrate reciprocity in New Zealand’s education relationships, something that’s very important as ENZ works to intensify education recruitment, business development and government relations activity throughout the region.
Applications are open for the next round of the Prime Minister’s Scholarships for Asia and close 28 September 2014. Applications can be made by individuals or groups.
Mr Bull says overall, the quantity and quality of applications greatly exceeded expectations; a fantastic outcome for a programme that’s only just begun.
“I encourage future applications to take the time to prepare high quality applications – the bar is only going to go up.”
