International providers and education agents gain a lot from the 4th ITENZ International Education Forum
International education providers and agents gained valuable insights, ideas and connections from the fourth ITENZ International Education Forum.
The full-day forum, held at New Zealand School of Food and Wine in Auckland, included presentations from Sahinde Pale, Group General Manager International and Sector Engagement at Education New Zealand, who spoke about the new structure and focus of Education New Zealand, and Paul Millar, Engagement Partner - International Education, Immigration New Zealand, who gave an update on visa processing and procedures.
The panel discussion on Digital credentials and student mobility featured a very informative discussion on the trends, challenges and opportunities for verification of credentials with Dolly Seow-Ganesan (Manager Qualifications Recognition Services, NZQA), Richard Smith (CE, Auckland Institute of Studies), and Jeremiah Allen-Juric (Business Development Manager, My eQUALS).
The education agent panel shared insights on international recruitment across the top markets for New Zealand PTEs. It featured Arunima Dhingra (Aims Global and NZAMI Board Director), Jay Aranas (Right Education), Anelita Casquel (Viva Languages) and Anthony Xu (AGL).
The final activity, which is always a highlight, was the speed dating between agents and providers - a quick way to connect with multiple partners.
