Student experience: global issues in the key markets – MP3

Outline:

The quality of the international student experience has shot to the top of the agenda in many countries with increased pressure from rapidly rising expectations and the growth in competition globally. This workshop, helping to mark UKCISA's 40th anniversary, will look at some of the key issues and developments which will influence that agenda and determine future 'attractiveness factors - in the UK, Australia and New Zealand. What will students be looking for? How do we ensure the rhetoric matches the reality? Do Codes of Practice help to guarantee and raise standards? How influential are job opportunities, careers advice and graduate employment? How is each country's experience rated? What are the views of government and the sector?

The workshop will include outline presentations from each of the three country perspectives on the big issues in those markets, followed by a lively question and answer session and panel discussion.
