  Conducted in October 2025 across nine priority markets, this research offers the most comprehensive picture yet of how New Zealand is perceived as an international study destination. The survey captures insights from prospective students aged 16-24 as well as parents in key school markets, providing a robust view of decision-making influences across the study journey.

  • How New Zealand compares to major competitors including Australia, the US, the UK, Malaysia, Japan, and Singapore.
  • Drivers and barriers influencing students and parents, and how affordability, migration pathways, reputation, and proximity are shaping global choices.

• ENZ strengthens applied education connections in Viet Nam through targeted engagement

  Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) has successfully delivered a targeted engagement programme in Viet Nam for New Zealand’s ITP and PTE sector, supporting providers to build connections, raise profile and position applied education as a strong pathway for Vietnamese students.

  Delivered from 29 March to 5 April 2026, the eight‑day programme spanned four key cities and marked the first sector‑specific, ENZ‑led initiative focused on applied and work‑integrated education in Viet Nam.

  Strengthening sector visibility and connections

  The programme was strategically designed to lift awareness of New Zealand’s applied education offering and to support providers to engage more deeply with the local education system. ENZ led a structured programme of in‑market activity, including:

  • networking sessions with education agents and applied education partners
  • targeted school visits, reaching around 350 students through career‑focused engagement
  • student‑facing outreach activities
  • a country briefing and a high‑level meeting with the Department of Vocational Education under Viet Nam’s Ministry of Education and Training.

  ENZ also worked closely with selected market partners to amplify reach and impact, with partner‑led activity including additional agent meetings, student engagement events and education workshops.

  Strong market response and growing awareness outcomes

  Market response throughout the programme was consistently positive, with strong interest from education agents, schools and students in applied and work‑integrated programmes. Key areas of interest included scholarships, tuition affordability, updated entry requirements for Vietnamese students, and post‑study work opportunities that support longer‑term career outcomes.

  The programme also delivered strong media results that significantly strengthened awareness of New Zealand’s applied education offering and reinforced positive perceptions of its education quality and experience in Viet Nam.

  Building momentum in Viet Nam

  ENZ’s Market Manager – Viet Nam, Van Banh, said the programme is helping build momentum and setting New Zealand’s vocational education sector up for sustainable growth in Viet Nam.

  “The response we have seen in Viet Nam has been very encouraging. Education agents, schools and students are showing strong interest in New Zealand’s applied and work‑integrated education, particularly around scholarships, affordability and clear pathways to employment,” Van said.

  “The strong media coverage from this programme has also helped lift awareness of what New Zealand offers, reinforcing its positive attributes around quality, employability and accessibility. We’re looking forward to building on this through targeted digital activity and local storytelling.”

  Building on this momentum, ENZ will deliver a follow‑up digital campaign featuring local influencers and stories from alumni and current students to further amplify the visibility and impact of New Zealand’s ITP and PTE sectors.

• New Zealand education roadshow connects Indonesian students with high-quality study options

  Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao strengthened engagement with students and families in Indonesia through a successful 2026 Study with New Zealand Roadshow across five major cities.

  In early February, ENZ, New Zealand universities and pathway providers travelled across Indonesia to showcase New Zealand’s world‑class education offering and help students make confident, informed decisions about studying in New Zealand.

  Building confidence and awareness across Indonesia

  The roadshow activities were delivered in Jakarta, Tangerang, Bandung, Surabaya and Semarang, demonstrating New Zealand’s commitment to supporting Indonesian students as they explore international study pathways.

  Through engaging presentations and direct conversations with institutional representatives, students, parents and teachers gained insights into New Zealand’s academic environment, student support systems, campus life, scholarship opportunities and everyday living experience.

  Strong participation from universities and pathway providers

  All eight New Zealand universities took part in the roadshow series, alongside pathway providers UP Education, University of Canterbury International College (UCIC) and Waikato Pathways College, which provide key transition routes into higher education.

  The programme included visits to seven schools across the five cities through mini‑fairs and presentations, as well as city‑wide Study with New Zealand expos that attracted more than 1,000 attendees.

  Strengthening New Zealand’s presence in the market

  ENZ Regional Director Asia (excluding China) Ben Burrowes highlighted the importance of consistent in‑market engagement.

  “New Zealand offers something genuinely special, a mix of quality education, innovative thinking, and a strong focus on student wellbeing. By being here and meeting students and families directly through these roadshow activities, we not only get to show what makes New Zealand different but also build stronger brand awareness. It’s one of the best ways to help Indonesian learners feel confident when choosing New Zealand for their studies abroad,” Ben said.

  Collaboration with partners

  The Study with New Zealand roadshow is co‑funded between ENZ, participating universities and pathway providers. ENZ’s education agent partners SUN Education Indonesia, ICAN Education and Alfalink supported the delivery.
