  • Thailand retention campaign launches to encourage long-term study in New Zealand

    ENZ Thailand has launched a retention campaign to encourage students from Thailand who have previously studied here to return to New Zealand for further study. 

    Students who choose to continue their education in New Zealand will be eligible for an air fare scholarship (valued up to NZD $3,000), making it easier for them to travel and transition into long-term study. At least 25 New Zealand education providers have volunteered to subsidise the award.

    The campaign has already generated strong interest. It was launched at the New Zealand Summer Pre-Departure Orientation on 1 March in Bangkok with over 240 students and parents in attendance.

    The scheme will work with students or education agents providing proof of previous study. Once the students are in New Zealand, they can rebate the air fare through coordination with their agents.

  • Introducing our joint work programme with Immigration New Zealand

    The joint work programme will support the sector by sharing clear, consistent and relevant information. Aims include encouraging decision-ready applications coming into the immigration system, improving processing times, reducing pressure on the system and attracting genuine students.  

    First-time international student visa application checklist 

    The joint work programme has developed a student visa application checklist for people applying for a student visa as an international student for the first time. 

    The checklist provides a step-by-step guide for students. It will help first-time applicants avoid missing out information and including the correct supporting evidence needed so INZ is able to make decisions more quickly.    

    Not only does it include general application information, it also has further information for eight countries that require specific forms of verifications.    

    The checklist was developed in conjunction with ENZ and peak bodies and this feedback has been incorporated into the final version.

  • Mapping emerging trends in education

    ENZ General Manager – Student Marketing, Paul Irwin, said attendees really enjoyed tackling these big issues during the Crowdsource Café session. 

    “Our audience uncovered some really interesting themes and thoughts for us all to reflect on. Ideas included focusing less on competition and more on collaboration, for example the opportunity to build your own degree across New Zealand.

    “We also talked about how everyone is the student of the future.  There will be more opportunities for lifelong learning and there will be a greater need to upskill due to automation,” Paul said.

    ENZ Regional Director – South Asia, South East Asia and Middle East, John Laxon said participants also agreed that the learner of the future will prefer personalised, flexible learning.

    “The modes of delivery will change as we move towards students being able to learn anywhere, anytime. 

    “Another theme that came through was a move towards offering shorter programmes, targeting life-long learners.”

    John said there was great discussion about moving towards diversified, individualised learning programmes that are globally recognised.

    “It’s definitely an exciting time to be involved in international education,” he said.
