As always, not every institution, source market, or program category will face the same dynamics, but in aggregate, that's the shape of the curve.

For quite some time, we at @Navitas have been talking about the post-pandemic v-shaped recovery and catch-up rebound for international education. I've seen enough data to show that this is indeed how the recovery has played out.

@behrooz_hm @MonashUni Congratulations!

In some personal news and as much as I think no one sees my tweets anymore (well, except for that one tweet about the Melb earthquake and possums running on the roof): I am honored to be appointed as the inaugural Chief Analytics Officer at @MonashUni .

@GavinMoodie @MattBrettLTU @SCUonline USC different from SCU but the point still stands. The reach of @usceduau is remarkable especially with its new campus in Petrie. I too enjoy dropping in on university campuses on holiday @MattBrettLTU - you’re not alone!

@MattBrettLTU Indeed. With 12,000 students @SCUonline has grown much stronger than I initially expected.

As a higher education tragic can’t help but check out the local campus when I am on holidays - it’s been incredibly impressive to have seen University of Sunshine Coast grow and mature over the years I’ve been coming up here

@ethanfog Join us at our session where we unpack how international education will grow from 6m in 2019 to 9.8m students in 2030.

See you at AIEC this week. Looking forward to sharing the results of our Global Student Flows Model. Building off a decade of modelling by the British Council, my colleagues @ethanfog and Moji B have done an amazing job casting forward tertiary student flows.

Canada now has quite some work to do to deal with these three threats — unbalanced growth, overheating migration, and the turning on of taps — before too much damage is done to an otherwise thriving international education sector.

Threat 3: Turning on taps after COVID-19 — what we've seen in 2021-22 is an extraordinary rate of growth. For the most part, this growth hasn't been driven by "digging wells": improvements to the product offering, the student experience, and employment outcomes.

CBC's Fifth Estate released a sobering story on international students in the Canadian career college sector. Worth watching: youtu.be/dNrXA5m7ROM or reading: cbc.ca/news/canada/in… This follows another concerning report a few months ago: thewalrus.ca/the-shadowy-bu…

@unisqaus @timeshighered @UniSQVC @melbcollege Congratulations! A remarkable achievement and an inspiration for regional universities around the world.

We've recorded an outstanding performance in the 2023 @timeshighered World University Rankings! Hear more from @UniSQVC and @melbcollege 💛

@BretlynB The re-emergence or rather persistence of a two speed international education sector. Source please?

@AndrewFraserQLD @Griffith_Uni Haha! Love it!

My old faithful Ute parked “like a boss” as the young folk might say. First day chairing ⁦@Griffith_Uni⁩ Council today on the Gold Coast …

On the theme of citizenship, a final quote from PM Hawke 26 Jan 1989: "The way you look, the way you dress, the faith you observe, the place you were born they are all important things but they are irrelevant to the question of whether you are a fair-dinkum Australian."1/3
