As one of our largest exports worth over $48 billion, the education of international students is critical to our economy and the 250,000 jobs they support. If we are to slash international student numbers, we must consider what else we are sacrificing. ACCI supports the tertiary education sector in advocating for one of Australia's biggest export industries. #IntlEducationMatters Independent Higher Education Australia (IHEA) Independent Tertiary Education Council Australia Universities Australia

Today draws National Skills Week for 2024 to a close. We face significant challenges as a nation, with skills shortages, leaky workforce pipelines and a changing work landscape. ACCI supports efforts to meet the government’s target for 80% of Australians to hold a post-school qualification by 2050, and National Skills Week is always a great way to raise the profile of these important vocations in pursuit of that target. So Happy National Skills Week to all who celebrate – and that should be every Australian, wherever you are, and whatever you do!
