  • Education Minister addresses first World Vocational and Technical Education Development Conference

    The conference was jointly organised by Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China, the Chinese National Commission for UNESCO and the Tianjin Municipal People’s Government.

    An audience comprising representatives from government departments, international organisations, trade associations, businesses, research groups and vocational education providers joined the hybrid event to discuss moving forward in the post pandemic era.  Topics covered included digital empowerment, green technology, industry/education integration, skill development and poverty reduction, promotion of equity and lifelong learning.

    The Minister outlined New Zealand’s recent experience of vocational education reform, highlighting the importance of integrated provider and work-based training, with learners and employers at the centre of the reform process. COVID-19 had continued to cause disruption around the world, but this also provided opportunities for change as countries plan for recovery, he said.

    The Minister’s involvement in the conference highlighted the 50th anniversary of bilateral diplomatic relations between the two countries this year, as well as the long standing and deep collaboration between New Zealand and China in vocational education.

  • Join the NZISA Roadshow – happening now!

    The Roadshow is an opportunity to welcome students who have recently arrived from their home countries and provide them with in-person networking opportunities.  

    A range of guest speakers will address each event, sharing their experiences and insights. Students will be able to connect with the guest speakers, international student support staff, as well as with each other. 

    Many agencies and organisations will also be present at Roadshow events, including Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao. 

    The first roadshow event took place in Christchurch last week, while the second event starts at 5pm TODAY in Dunedin:

    NZISA President Vikram Selvaraj

    NZISA President Vikram Selvaraj says this is a very special opportunity. 

    “Starting with Christchurch, where I’m based, was a great feeling for me personally. The idea for the Roadshow was so students could rebuild confidence, connect with other students and hear about the support that’s available. 

    The panel discussion in Christchurch included a range of speakers with an interest in international education.

    “Students who attended felt inspired by the panel discussion, and we are hoping that we will have this event again next year. 

    “We’re looking forward to the next three Roadshow locations and connecting with many more international students.” 

    Students can find more details and sign up to attend the events through the NZISA Facebook page.
