• Consultation on ENZRA and ENZ’s agent work

  Clive Jones, General Manager Business Development, ENZ says the 2015 review of ENZRA undertaken by external consultants found significant shortcomings in the ENZRA programme. 

  “Education agents continue to make a significant contribution to the success of international education in New Zealand, and the ENZRA review also recommended ways for ENZ to better support education providers and education agents to be successful.  We have been exploring all recommendations throughout our consultations.”

  As part of our consultation, ENZ now invites organisations active in New Zealand’s education industry to complete a 10-15 minute survey by Thursday 30 June 2016.

  “The survey results will help us identify the products and services we should be offering education agents and education providers to best support the recruitment of quality international students for New Zealand,” says Clive.

  Depending on what ENZ hears through consultations, and the amount of analysis and development needed, it’s likely ENZ will announce the next steps in its work regarding agents later this this year.

• Mayoral events provide vibrant welcomes to students in their regions

  Last month we shared some of the wonderful images that New Zealand schools, universities, PTEs, Te Pūkenga and English Language Schools shared with ENZ as they welcomed their new students for 2024. This month we are sharing details and images from the Mayoral welcomes that some of our regions have held for their visiting international students. 

  Thank you for adding to our diversity and vibrancy! 

  More than 40 international students were greeted by Whanganui District Council Mayor, Andrew Tripe, at a special Mayoral welcome to the community on Monday 8 April. 

  Speaking to the students from countries including Brazil, South Korea, Japan, Germany, China, India Indonesia, Thailand, and Viet Nam, the Mayor thanked them for choosing Whanganui and adding to the “diversity and vibrancy of our community”. 

  The students attending had enrolled in both secondary schools and tertiary institutions in the district such as Whanganui High School, UCOL Whanganui and the New Zealand International Commercial Pilot Academy. 

  Formal greeting over, the Mayor was rushed by students seeking a special ‘selfie moment’ to share with families and social media.

  Similar levels of excitement were seen in Hamilton where the Mayor of Hamilton, Paula Southgate and local performance groups welcomed approximately 250 new international students to the Waikato region. The welcome event was held at the Pā, University of Waikato and is the first welcome since the Covid-19 pandemic put these events on hold.

  Faymie Li, Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao’s Senior Advisor Student Experience said, “I was deeply honoured to witness this significant event and see how we demonstrate manaakitanga to our international students.  

  “The diverse cultures we embrace in Aotearoa is truly something to cherish and celebrate. It was wonderful to see so many school students attending the ceremony, offering them a unique student experience they don't typically encounter.” 

  Jiabao Zhao (Boa), a former international student who completed a Bachelor of Management Studies with First Class Honours at the University of Waikato, shared a message of encouragement with the students. Boa’s advice for new students was: to study hard but also “talk to and meet students from outside your country. It’s easy to remain in your comfort zone but that is not the point of studying abroad. Network and build your presence”.

  She also reminded students to take care of both their physical and mental health. There will be challenges but also great opportunities, and her own study and career journey is testament to that. She now works as an International Sales Operation Executive at Prolife Foods Ltd in Hamilton.

  Also in March, nearly 100 international students received a fine welcome centered on the theme of connection, by Timaru District Mayor, Nigel Bowen. The Timaru District will be home to students from Japan, China, Germany, Thailand, South Korean, Hong Kong, Macau, Fiji, Philippines, Brazil and Poland, and more over the course of this year.

• Annual survey shows continuing strong support for international students in New Zealand

  More than three quarters of 1,100 New Zealanders in the annual 2024 survey conducted by Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (ENZ) believe the country should host the same or more international students in New Zealand.

  This was the key finding of research, completed in October, to measure New Zealanders’ views on the contribution and challenges of international students studying in New Zealand.

  For the first time this year, the annual survey asked respondents if they wanted to see more or fewer international students in the country. Forty-one (41) percent of those surveyed said they would like to see more, with another 36 percent supporting the same number of students. Only 11 percent indicated they would like to see fewer international students arrive. 

  Positive perceptions of international students also continued to track strongly with 72 percent saying the students benefit New Zealand. This followed similar levels of support of 75 percent in 2023 and 73 percent in 2022.

  Commenting on the findings, ENZ’s Chief Executive, Amanda Malu, said the results reinforced the growing support and understanding of the contribution of international students to local communities and the country.

  “Since 2018 we have seen increasing support for the contribution international students make in key areas,” said Ms Malu.

  “Today 82 percent of New Zealanders agree that international students contribute to our cultural diversity, with 79 percent feeling they help local students learn about other cultures and ways of life, as well as contributing to local businesses during their studies.”

  “This level of support is enormously pleasing. It tells us we can continue to steadily grow the number of international students in New Zealand and that they will continue to receive a warm welcome in our communities.”

• New brand identity of the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme launching next week

  Education providers and suppliers who are part of the programme will be able to start using the new brand’s design assets from The ENZ BrandLab from 23 October.  

  The Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship website will also prominently showcase the refreshed brand from next week. 

  

  The new Manaaki logo consists of three parts. The tohu is on the left, the Manaaki wordmark is placed in the middle, with the Aotearoa New Zealand fernmark on the right-hand side.

  New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade - Manatū Aorere (MFAT) Scholarships Unit Manager, Alexandra Grace, said it was important for the new brand identity to reflect the transformational nature of Manaaki scholarships to build people’s skills and support them to contribute positively to their communities and countries.  

  “The new brand is an exciting step forward to unify the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme’s visual identity to appeal to prospective scholars who are most aligned with our Programme’s values,” Alexandra said. 

  

  He parirau is one of the key patterns of the new brand. It is inspired by the takarangi (spiral) and parirau (feathers).

  The brand identity development and working group involved kaimahi Māori from MFAT, Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao and Indigenous Design Innovation Aotearoa (IDIA) who gifted a specially crafted whakatauākī* for the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme.  

  The whakatauākī ‘He Parirau Toro Ao’ translates to ‘stretch your wings to the world’.  

  ENZ’s Senior Advisor, Rautaki Māori, Craig Rofe, said the whakatauākī is a profound taonga and gift to the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme.  

  “It beautifully anchors the programme in āhua Māori (Māori ways of being).” 

  “We are also pleased with how the whole process of creating the new brand has been steeped in āhua Māori. The way everyone involved in the project used whakawhanaungatanga – the specific act of getting to know one another before we started our work – and wānanga, coming together to meet, discuss and deliberate, every step of the way, made all the difference,” Craig said.

  The new brand was developed following research and interviews with 29 scholars and alumni, and a survey covering 627 people. 

  The research surfaced three compelling principles for the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme – manaakitanga, empowering people, communities and countries, and fostering enduring connections.  

  Watch this video to hear more about the design elements of the new Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme brand identity.

  ENZ’s Manaaki Scholarships Manager, Nancy Linton, said the concept of manaakitanga is integral to the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarships Programme – not only by name, but also in the way that scholars are supported during their entire journey, from application and study to their return home. 

  “The manaaki we show our visitors by embracing them like part of our ‘whānau’ or family is visible in the way our educational providers extend that support to Manaaki scholars and alumni, who really value it as part of their study experience. 

  “I am pleased with the way we have incorporated this core element of the Programme, among others, into the new brand identity,” Nancy said. 

  A brand transition period is in place through 28 February 2025, to allow providers enough time to switch to new brand assets.   

  Visit The ENZ BrandLab to access new design assets for the Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship Programme after 24 October. 

  * Whakatauākī are proverbs where the person who said it first is known, as opposed to whakataukī, which are proverbs whose origin cannot be traced to a person. 

• Are you making the most of IntelliLab?

  ENZ’s Intelligence Manager Andrew McPhee encourages all New Zealand education providers working in international education to make the most of this resource.

  “International education professionals want to be as informed as possible before making important decisions – IntelliLab should be your go-to source,” he says.

  IntelliLab is free, easy to access and provides the latest information on student numbers and trends, market information, industry valuations, research, and insights on developments such as the recent downturn in new Chinese students, to help industry make informed decisions.

  “It also includes exclusive content – while the summary dashboards and most infographics are available for anyone to download, the reports and insights are only available to registered New Zealand government officials and international education providers.

  “The interactive numbers tools in particular are popular with users, such as TED (The Enrolments Data), as it enables providers to analyse student numbers over the past five years by their key markets, sectors, and region,” Andrew says.

  Christchurch NZ Programme Manager Bree Loverich says the data from IntelliLab is a key source of support for the work she does at a regional level.

  “We are increasingly asked to provide data insights at a moments’ notice for various stakeholders and to support business cases for our student visitor activities, major events, talent attraction and retention.

  “The support and quality of data provided by ENZ’s intelligence team is outstanding. They have always provided quality insights and analysis to support our efforts to make informed decisions and projects that benefit industry and the student body.

  “They have also made it possible for me to articulate the value of the industry to key influencers in the region. It’s a service that the region has come to trust and we could not be successful without it.”

  Recently added publications include:

  • Monthly visa summaries and the interactive visa tool updates
  • New Zealand Education system at a glance (OECD and MOE updates)
  • Regional student number data cubes
  • Economist Intelligence Unit country, region, and city reports
  • 2018 Student numbers interactive tool

• 10,000 milestone marks new heights
  “Our story has more impact when we tell it together,” says Kathryn McCarrison, Education New Zealand’s General Manager of Marketing and Channel Development. “That there are now more than 10,000 pieces of our material in circulation internationally is a great sign for the developing strength of New Zealand’s education brand.”
   
  An online toolkit of marketing materials, known as The Brand Lab, was launched in November 2013 to make tools to promote New Zealand education more readily available. “I’d like to thank the New Zealand education providers, agents and New Zealand officials offshore who’ve so quickly used these resources to complement their marketing efforts,” says Kathryn.
   
  “While our brand awareness is increasing, especially in China and India, we still have a long way to go in comparison to our better known competitors, so please keep telling your friends and contacts about what’s available to help their recruitment and sales efforts.”
   
  “The sharper we look together, the greater the impact we’ll all have when introducing New Zealand to prospective students and their parents.
   
  “We’re also fortunate to have a large pool of resources to draw on,” says Kathryn. “As well as The Brand Lab, the New Zealand Story and Tourism New Zealand’s media resources can all be used to promote New Zealand abroad, paving the way for people to introduce their product, service or school in more detail.”
   
  The Brand Lab is home to over 1,000 education-related assets ranging from royalty-free photos to a brochure series about New Zealand education available in nine different languages. More than 1,500 people from 60 nations around the world have downloaded digital assets so far, with the most frequent users being New Zealand institutions, international agents and Education New Zealand offshore staff.
   
  It’s free to use and download materials, following a simple request process to ensure brand guidelines are understood.
   
  The most popular downloads so far include the New Zealand Education Story video, the Think New education brochures, a directory of Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics and the New Zealand Qualifications Authority’s multilingual student guides.
   
  Kathryn says The Brand Lab will continue to expand and grow. “We recently asked our industry what they needed next so coming up soon are new photos, videos and a digital toolkit to promote studying in New Zealand online.”
