Looking ahead to 2026 – What’s happening in our markets
We’ve highlighted ENZ-led in-market experiences that are underway for the first half of the year below, and we are also excited to provide you with provisional dates for in-market experiences that are planned for the second half of 2026, including New Zealand student fairs and agent seminars in Thailand, South Korea, China and Viet Nam (agent seminars only in Viet Nam and China).
Other targeted subsector in-market experiences will be developed around our flagship student fairs and agent seminars to maximise travel for visiting providers. These will be in ENZ's other focus markets in the region, including Japan, and will be delivered before or after the dates listed below. Further details will be shared in early 2026.
In the new year, we will invite providers to apply to participate in our in-market experiences. Please note that, given rising costs, we will likely need to review participation fees. Keep an eye on the ENZ website's events page at www.enz.govt.nz/events, and updates will be included in upcoming editions of E-News.

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.

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.
