Applications are open for the Europe and Latin America Engagement Fund
The aim of this funding is to support engagement activities with education agents from Europe, Brazil and Colombia. New Zealand institutions are welcome to submit proposals and apply for up to $3000 per project. We will fund up to 15 projects that focus on engaging with agents from Europe, Brazil and Colombia.
ENZ’s Market Development Manager – Europe, Adina Stoye, said ENZ has a strong and loyal network of agents in Europe, especially Germany and Italy.
“They are keen for support and engagement with New Zealand institutions, and welcome opportunities for events and promotional activities. This initiative is a wonderful opportunity for New Zealand education providers to promote their education offering through building education agent networks.”
Proposed activities should be completed during the second half of 2023 and have firm goals and outcomes in place. Examples of activities are a scholarship campaign, contribution to bringing an agent to New Zealand for a famil, or supporting a trip to attend an event organised by agents.
ENZ’s Director of Engagement – Latin America, Javiera Visedo said education agents in Latin America are keen to learn more about what a New Zealand education has to offer, with students excited at the prospect of studying here. Reconnecting with New Zealand education providers is a top priority for them.”
Applications are open to New Zealand institutions only. This includes New Zealand education providers such as universities, Private Training Establishments (PTEs), English Language Schools (ELS), regional economic development agencies, schools, and peak bodies. Some providers may wish to work together to submit their applications, for example high schools or ELS.

We will host an information session about the funding and how to apply on Thursday 27 April at 9 am. To register for the session, fill out the form here.

Inviting feedback on the Capability Toolkit project
More than 36 pages of tips, guidelines, tools, case studies and scenarios have been developed for the online resource, and ISANA NZ is seeking your feedback.
Material is grouped around key themes that include wraparound tailored support, intercultural competence in education contexts, and student experience information for agents and offshore partners. The toolkit will be published early in 2023.
“This is all about delivering an excellent student experience,” says Chris Beard, ISANA’s Executive Director.
“The toolkit will promote evidence-based practice that supports innovation, nimbleness and risk mitigation, and aligns with the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021, which came into effect this year.”
To browse selected draft pages and provide feedback, go to the ISANA NZ website, and select ‘Toolkit’. To share your reflections, ideas and suggestions, please email content@isana.nz with the header 'Capability Toolkit feedback'.

Connecting careers in Bay of Plenty and Waikato
This new online resource hub supports international secondary school students to pursue tertiary education and employment opportunities in the regions.
Secondary schools can use the tool to showcase the exciting range of opportunities in the students’ backyard. It encourages them to explore, plan, connect and succeed.
International students staying in the regions bring many benefits, including addressing skill shortages in key industries where skilled workers are in high demand, increased spending and promoting global citizenship and diversity.
Education Tauranga regional relationship manager Melissa Gillingham says providing a comprehensive international student journey plan is becoming increasingly important.
“This allows students and their parents to see the opportunities that exist in the regions, from the school sector, into the tertiary sector and through to employment,” she says.
“Excellent existing relationships across all education sectors within our region allowed us to hit the ground running, creating, delivering and promoting our international student journey plan. We would like to thank all our stakeholders for their support.”
Education Tauranga partnered with Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao, Te Waka and Rotorua NZ to help bring Career Connect to life.
