• ENZ connects with industry

  Led by ENZ, Connect attracted 250 participants to seven sessions around the country to discuss the key strategic priorities for the sector over the coming year.

  Hosted by ENZ Chief Executive, Grant McPherson, and General Manager Industry Development, Greg Scott, the series covered what’s happening globally and nationally in international education and ENZ’s strategic direction for the year.

  “Part of ENZ’s role is to be a thought leader for international education, and it’s important we take the time to discuss the future direction of the industry for New Zealand within the global context,” said Grant.

  Greg added that the series was an important opportunity for government agencies to hear from industry.

  “Working collaboratively with the sector is vital to the success of international education in New Zealand,” said Greg. 

  “The most valuable part of these sessions is for us at ENZ to hear from the sector about challenges they are currently facing, and any opportunities and questions they wish to raise.”

  The sessions included consultation with ENZ and the Ministry of Education on the draft International Education Strategy. Immigration New Zealand attended each session to discuss the proposed changes to post-study work rights. NZQA representatives also attended some sessions.

  Participants said they valued the chance to have free and frank discussions with industry colleagues and government, and are keen for similar opportunities in the future.

  A presentation by Grant was recorded and will be available online for industry representatives to view. Keep an eye out in E-News for when this is uploaded.

• Viet Nam – New Zealand Education Forum in Waikato

  This was the first such high-level delegation to visit New Zealand since the pandemic and follows the successful visit to Viet Nam by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern in November, where both governments reaffirmed their commitment to working together as strategic partners. The delegation was led by H.E. Vương Đình Huệ, President of Viet Nam’s National Assembly. 

  Universities New Zealand, University of Waikato, and Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) hosted the event, which was attended by representatives from all eight New Zealand universities. New Zealand’s former Governor-General and current Chancellor of the University of Waikato Sir Anand Satyanand addressed the forum, along with ENZ Chief Executive Grant McPherson and The University of Waikato's Vice-Chancellor, Professor Neil Quigley, who launched a New Zealand – Viet Nam Friendship Association at the forum. 

  ENZ Chief Executive Grant McPherson spoke about his recent visit to Viet Nam, and our long history of education collaboration together. 

  “It’s nothing short of outstanding to see New Zealand and Viet Nam’s strong education ties that span the last 60 years. Educational cooperation has always been at the heart of our partnership.” 

  The forum proved to be a valuable opportunity to strengthen institution-to-institution relationships and further develop the education relationship between New Zealand and Viet Nam. Ten MoUs were signed between New Zealand and Vietnamese tertiary institutions, paving the way for further collaboration.
