Australia's education system
The Australian training and education system offers over 12,000 internationally recognised, world class courses. Tuition fees and living costs for studying in Australia are comparable to most other countries, with quality tuition often being more affordable here than in the United Kingdom and USA.
Australia has the third largest number of international students studying and living in an English-speaking country. The unrivalled service quality, high standard of teaching and great lifestyle opportunities are some of the reasons why 180,000 international students choose to study in Australia.
Australia's multicultural society provides international students with diverse cultural experiences while studying and travelling in an English speaking country. There's also the added advantage of being close to Asia, and the ability to work up to 20 hours per week during semester, and full-time during vacation breaks.
All institutions (including Australian Schools, Australian Universities, Australian English Colleges, Australian Vocational Education and TAFE institutes) must register with the Australian Government and meet these special registration conditions:
-
learning concepts, applications and theories must meet the Government's high quality standards
-
classes must involve active learning and student participation
-
institutions must inform students of the assessment process at the time of enrolment to ensure they fully understand how they will be evaluated.
