Following significant downsizing during the #pandemic, if further #jobs are lost in #Australian #tertiaryeducation it will definitely impact service quality! If cuts are made in #university #careersservices, this could be very detrimental to university’s future recruitment, students go to university with a view to getting a great job, particularly #internationalstudents, traversing the globe for their #highereducation. We need to support students transition successfully into the workforce, particularly back in their home countries or they may increasingly question the value of an #internationaleducation! Subscribe to our newsletter International #Employability Insight - https://lnkd.in/e5c_CSE4 “#Internationalstudents & #university staff representatives have voiced concern about the impact of a cap on #internationalstudent numbers on the future viability of #Australia's #tertiaryeducation institutions. The federal government has announced the number of international students starting at #Australian universities & vocational training #VET providers will be capped at 270,000 from next year. National Union of Students president, Ngaire Bogemann said the government's announcement is stressing out international #students already in the country. "What we do know now is the cap will be a cap on total new enrolments for 2025, so that shouldn't affect students who are currently here and enrolled," Ms Bogemann said. "But it does raise question marks for students who are already here & want to transition to a #postgraduate #degree, or want to transition to a #degree at another institution. "This is where we're going to start having those question marks raised." Ms Bogemann is concerned about the impact the cap will have on universities & the potential for further job losses in the sector. "When you cut staff, that means less available #teachers to run courses, to #teach subjects, & that means both domestic & international students are going to receive a lower quality of education, which is a really massive concern, not just for the future but for right now," she said. "I think if the government is serious about building a #highereducation sector that is top notch, & if they are genuinely committed to making sure that every student that studies here can have a positive & enriching experience, they need to rethink these caps.” Asia Careers Group SDN BHD - Investing in International Futures AUIDF British Council BUILA Education New Zealand | Manapou ki te Ao International Education Association of Australia (IEAA) Innovative Research Universities (IRU) University Innovation Alliance (UIA) University Industry Innovation Network (UIIN) Independent Tertiary Education Council Australia National Association of Graduate Careers Advisory Services (NAGCAS) Regional Universities Network The Group of Eight UCAS UKCISA Universities Australia Universities Canada Universities UK Universities UK International

Employability is not only a driving force behind study choice but also key for recommendation of the study experience (together with course organisation (!) and quality of lectures). Hence, it is evident that from the start of the student journey that higher education institutions need to work on graduate career outcomes, an area where institutions in Europe lag by 9% compared to the global benchmark. https://lnkd.in/d5-NiQzb

For all students receiving their #Alevel results this week - please remember the university you go to does not define you! In fact fewer champions of industry went to Russell Group of Universities than didn’t (if anyone would like to argue the contrary we would be happy to collect the data) & a number of the most successful business leaders did not go to or finish #university at all! Tips & tricks for those receiving results this week: - Prepare for the worse - look at the UCAS #clearing website for your 1 & 2nd choice #universities. Do they have other courses similar to the one which you have applied to in clearing, what are the grades. - Take down numbers for your 1 & 2nd choice to call if you miss by a little & be flexible to change course if needed. Also worth finding out who the admissions tutor is & their email address to reinforce your appeal - Have a “Plan B” of a university with your chosen course available through clearing & note down their number too! When you get your results if you make the grades great, if not hit the phone! Just remember, universities need students just as much as students want universities! Asia Careers Group SDN BHD data shows definitively that you can work for a leading employer without going to a high ranked institution. We will say it again your university does not define your #future #career trajectory! As it is increasingly important to understand both domestic & international student’s #employability, #career paths & trajectories particularly in major international student source markets - #china #india #ASEAN etc. Particularly when one considers the various travel advisories issues by #India #Malaysia #UAE #Indonesia etc. with reference to the UK after the recent unrest in many university cities.

Did you know today is Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Day? A day to recognise the significant role that SMEs play in the global economy, crucial for economic growth, job creation, and innovation. Universities highly value their partnerships with SMEs, collaborating to enhance staff training and upskilling through flexible courses like MicroCreds and pathways such as Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Additionally, universities work closely with SMEs on student placements and co-creating courses. These initiatives advance the learning material to ensure graduates are equipped with the skills and knowledge that meet industry needs. #SMEsDay 🔗 https://lnkd.in/edAM3Zba

"Why enroll in university in the UK? I'll give you 5 good reasons to do it: 1. You'll be able to show off your degree and brag to your friends and family (I'm being sarcastic, but not too much 🤓). 2. You'll meet a lot of cool people at university (and who knows, maybe even find your soulmate). 3. It's all funded by the government (they "pay" you to study as long as you actually study!). 4. Once you graduate, you can change the job you currently don't enjoy. 5. You can acquire more skills and advance in your current career. 6. Plus, you have one more reason: you won't have to go to the academy every day and you won't have excuses not to study. The choice is yours, but know that in the UK, at least for now, we can take advantage of these benefits 🥸 Feel free to contact me for a free consultation; if you're not sure what to study, I can give you some pointers 🤞 #degree #undergraduate #funded #university"
