INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION OF QUALITY EDUCATION:
The leading educational institutions all around the world recognize Australian educational qualifications. An Australian degree, certificate, or diploma is globally recognized and equivalent to the degrees obtained from The United States and the United Kingdom.
QUALITY:
The international students who have adopted the Australian education are constantly supported by the Australian Government through the ESOS (Education Services for Overseas Students) Act. This Act guarantees that international students receive a high quality of education, facilities, marketing, and International Student Support Services.
TEACHING AND LEARNING STYLE:
A student-centered education system is adopted by the Australian educational institutions. This education system has a mission to produce students who have excellent theoretical knowledge of the subjects they have opted for. They make sure that the students can apply the knowledge that they have gained in the real world, and they are capable of making intelligent and smart decisions by acting independently.
TYPES OF INSTITUTES
The Australian education system is broadly divided into the university, vocational, school and English language sectors.
UNIVERSITY SECTOR:
There are currently 40 universities in Australia, 38 of which are Australian Government universities. All Higher Education Providers are subject to an extensive quality control régime. This is conducted by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) www.teqsa.gov.au. Australian Universities offer a range of pathway programs, undergraduate and postgraduate coursework degrees, and postgraduate research degrees.
TAFE (TECHNICAL AND FURTHER EDUCATION) INSTITUTES:
These are state-based institutes of vocational training run by government-funded Registered Training Organisations (RTOs). They offer practically oriented Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses that train students in the appropriate skills they need in the workplace.
The TAFE sector is the largest education and training sector in Australia. Each year thousands of international students come to Australia to take advantage of the extensive range of courses and subject areas that provide practical skills and vocational training for a huge variety of careers.
PRIVATE VOCATIONAL COLLEGES:
These privately owned RTO’s offer a range of vocational courses similar to those offered by the TAFE system.
SCHOOLS SECTOR:
Each Australian State offers students a choice of primary and secondary education in publically-funded (government) schools or in private schools. The children of international students are eligible to study in either system.
OVERSEAS STUDENT HEALTH COVER (OSHC):
Australia has a system of compulsory health insurance for international students called OSHC. This is arranged for each student during the application process, and prior to their arrival in Australia. The department of Immigration and Citizenship requires students to maintain their OSHC for the duration of their time on a student visa in Australia.
PART TIME EMPLOYMENT
An Australia student visa permits international students with part-time employment opportunities as they are allowed to work up to 40 hours per fortnight (two weeks) during their semesters and work full-time during the student’s official vacation periods.
A degree obtained from an Australian institution holds great value, and it paves an individual’s way to an illustrious career. A major advantage that international students have is the chances of employability. With its vast career options, there is a guaranteed chance of employability to all the students opting for Australian education.
