  • Career advice in Korea

    “This was such a valuable session for us. It’s really hard to find a good opportunity to connect with older established graduates, and to receive their advice about matters important to us – such as employment,” says Henry Shin, a seminar participant and graduate of a high school in New Zealand.

    The seminar is expected to be one of many in a series aimed at giving practical and helpful advice for New Zealand-educated alumni who now live in Korea. The first seminar was delivered by HR managers from SK Construction, a subsidiary of a Korean conglomerate SK Group, and ASML, a Dutch semi-conductor company.

    “New Zealand graduates do not always understand what qualities Korean companies are looking for or how they should approach the complicated employment process that Korean companies use to hire staff,” says ENZ’s Market Development Manager for Korea, Onnuri Lee.

    “We hope that New Zealand-educated alumni can help fellow New Zealand-educated alumni to enter the Korean workforce, and develop better understanding and awareness of the strengths of alumni of New Zealand education.”

    The Kiwi Alumni Association is a volunteer organisation managed and run by New Zealand-educated alumni living in Korea. It was established in 2014 with the aim of connecting New Zealand-educated alumni who are living in Korea. It organises social events and professional development activities.

  • New website address reflects government endorsement

    Our research demonstrated that websites which are clearly identifiable as government-endorsed have a distinct advantage in the international marketplace.

    The studyinnewzealand.govt.nz address lends legitimacy and credibility to the website. The .govt url can’t be faked, and our audience understands this.

    It is invaluable in building trust in our brand and the information we provide for international audiences. It is also in line with the practice of our nearest competitor: www.studyinaustralia.gov.au

  • Pathway visa pilot update

    logoPrint 0

    That is, an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test (or equivalent test) must be submitted by students who:

    • intend to undertake a study pathway that begins with an English language course leading to a programme of study at levels 5 to 8 on the New Zealand Qualifications Framework, and

    • are from a country that has an annual decline rate of more than 20 per cent for student visa applications.

    These students must demonstrate that they only need an improvement of an IELTS 0.5 band score (or equivalent) to gain entry to their intended level 5 – 8 course. For example, if a level 5 course has an English language entry requirement of IELTS 5.0, an IELTS test (or equivalent) must be submitted with a student’s application with a minimum overall band score of 4.5. 

    The English language course must also be completed within a 16 week period.

    Students from countries with a visa approval rate of above 80 percent no longer need to demonstrate IELTS levels.

  • Student visa approval rates available

    logoPrint 1

    The list of approval rates for student visas is updated every year by Immigration New Zealand and relates to the change to Rule 18 of the Programme Approval and Accreditation Rules, which was implemented in October 2015. Only relevant student visa categories are counted to produce this list, which covers offshore student visa applications only.

    The rule change brought in to effect different programme entry requirements for international students from countries with a student visa approval rate below 80 per cent. English language entry requirements for international students from countries with a student visa approval rate of 80 percent or above remained the same.

    Organisations have until 2 March 2016 to reflect the updated approval rates. 

  • UIP data collection: go-live 31 March

    There is a temporary exemption from the new requirements for providers that offer only English language training, but any UIP that provides English language training only may still use the UIP data collection system to return data if they wish to do so.

    The new system is an outcome of the recent change to Rule 5.1.3 of the Private Training Establishment Registration Rules 2013, making the requirement to submit information to the Ministry of Education using a new automated data system a condition of PTE registration. 

    For more information about the data and how to submit it, follow these links:

  • Introducing Joyce Hu in Taiwan

    What is your role at ENZ in Taiwan?

    I joined ENZ in October 2015 as Education Marketing Manager in Taipei, replacing Jamie Chien. I divide my time between ENZ (30 percent) and MFAT at the New Zealand Commerce and Industry Office (70 percent), where I provide executive and administrative support to the Director.  At ENZ, I report to Regional Director – Greater China Alexandra Grace.

    What are your priorities in this role?

    My priorities are to:

    • Raise the profile of New Zealand education to agents

    • Support New Zealand education providers doing business in Taiwan, by introducing them to local stakeholders

    • Organise and run ENZ’s marketing and promotional activities on behalf of ENZ

    What’s your connection to New Zealand?

    I have participated in an MFAT management course in Wellington, and also escorted a Taiwan television crew to New Zealand to shoot a feature programme on New Zealand business and society.

    I have a lot of experience in running events, managing official visits and dealing with requests for consular assistance from New Zealanders in Taiwan.

    I am passionate about New Zealand as a lovely place to live, to work, and to study, and I enjoy telling the New Zealand education story in Taiwan.

    I look forward to meeting more New Zealand education providers when they visit here, so please email me at joyce.hu@mfat.govt.nz  if you have any questions before your visit.

  • New Brand Ambassador video available

    ENZ sat down with Stephen to capture the story of how his New Zealand education shaped his success. Stephen attributes the New Zealand style of learning to his ability to be able to think creatively and problem solve – valuable skills to have when facing the world’s best cricket teams!

    We spent time with Stephen at his alma mater, Canterbury University, where he studied to become a teacher, and at Christchurch school, Medbury, where he offered some advice to a Year 7 cricket team. We also filmed his meeting with an Indian student who is completing a PhD in New Zealand, researching cricketers’ shoulder injuries.

    ENZ is using the Stephen Fleming video to help tell the New Zealand education story in India via social media and at events, including in presentations to prospective students.

    You can watch the video on our YouTube channel. We encourage you, and your agents, to download it for use from The Brand Lab.
