JJL Overseas Education opens New Zealand office
JJL’s new branch office is part of its new service strategy to upgrade its services to Chinese international students.
Hayley Shields, ENZ’s Director Student Experience, spoke and cut the ribbon at the opening ceremony in Auckland, welcoming JJL to New Zealand and affirming the importance of the New Zealand-China education relationship.
“JJL has had long-standing relationships with many quality New Zealand education providers for over 15 years, most of whom were represented at the opening. People had travelled from all over New Zealand to show their support for JJL’s investment in a local office,” said Hayley.
The JJL team will be focussed on advising and supporting the positive student experience of their students currently in New Zealand education institutions.
The organisation’s team of three is led by Janet Wang, who has been working in international education in New Zealand for many years.
JJL’s new premises can be found on Level 6, 115 Queen Street, Auckland.

Thai delegation signs MOUs with two NZ universities
Education New Zealand’s Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) Programme Manager, Jaruwan Pongjaruwat, led the Thai delegation from Rajamangala University of Technology (RMUT) and Silpakorn University (SU). The delegation visited several universities and Te Pūkenga business divisions across both the North and South islands in the last week of May.
Jaruwan said that the main aim of the visit was to facilitate a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signing between RMUT and the University of Otago and between SU and the University of Canterbury. It also proved a good opportunity to further develop the relationship that these offshore partners have with Te Pūkenga.
“It was an absolute pleasure to accompany this group of senior officials from RMUT and SU around New Zealand. The visit gave the RMUT delegation members an opportunity to revisit institutions which they have previously partnered with for student and teacher mobility projects, including Wintec, Weltec and Otago Polytechnic.
RMUT and SU delegates see how Wintec manages engineering material and resources across different disciplines.
“It also provided an opportunity for our delegation to visit new education providers such as the University of Waikato and the University of Canterbury to learn more about the areas in which these institutions excel. They particularly enjoyed learning more about what each institution has to offer and seeing how New Zealand education providers link research to commercial products and services. On top of that, delegates also had the opportunity to visit Weta Workshops and have dinner at Bellamy's restaurant in The Beehive whilst in Wellington," said Jaruwan.

It is hoped that this visit will lead to future projects in the areas of teacher development, articulation programmes, student mobility and a joint foundation programme. The joint foundation programme will now be extended to cover students studying science and health science, allowing students a pathway to all eight New Zealand universities.

Changes to online agent training programme
Dan Smidt, ENZ’s Manager – Agents says the upgrade is long overdue and will make the programme more tailored to agents.
“The current online agent training programme has operated largely unaltered since 2013, and there have been considerable changes in technology and learning styles since then that mean the programme is not as effective as it could be,” says Dan.
“The programme will be re-designed from the agent perspective and have a range of tools, resources and training material that will assist agents in promoting New Zealand as an international education destination.
“Industry stakeholders will also have an opportunity to create learning modules when the new programme is launched.”
The new online agent training programme is intended to re-launch in November 2018.
In order to facilitate the build of the new programme, the current programme will become unavailable near the end of June.
We encourage all agents who have started the training to complete it as soon as possible. Click here to log in.
