New research has challenged perceptions of poor career outcomes among #internationalstudents who settle in Australia. An analysis of census data has found that overseas graduates’ career trajectories have improved Down Under, with more foreign students moving into professional and skilled technical roles, while fewer end up as labourers, administrative staff or sales workers. In a recent presentation at the Australian International Education Conference (AIEC) in Canberra this week, Navitas Chief Insights Officer Jonathan Chew stated that international students achieved career trajectories “not that different” from Australians or New Zealanders. Jon's analysis from the Australian Census and Temporary Entrants Integrated Dataset, found that the number of foreigners on graduate visas had ballooned from 37,000 on 2016 census night to 89,000 in the 2021 count. Notwithstanding this growth, temporary graduates had achieved a more skilled profile, with a higher proportion of professionals and almost double the share of technicians.

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in expanding access to high quality #internationaleducation, and will offer new opportunities for #internationalstudents to further their academic journeys in London, Ontario. At the heart of this partnership is Western International College (WesternIC) - the first Navitas pathway in North America to support students entering professional master’s and undergraduate programs. WesternIC will offer an integrated and highly customized program that includes academic course content, study skills development, and wraparound social and academic support systems that will allow students, upon successful completion, to progress to certain professional master’s and undergraduate degrees at Western. As a founding member of U15 Canada, Western is ranked amongst the top 1% of higher education institutions worldwide. The university joins five other Canadian universities in partnering with Navitas, reinforcing our commitment to student success and global engagement. Scott Jones, Navitas Group CEO, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Western University, a globally recognized university with a strong reputation for research excellence and student achievement. Western will benefit greatly from the Navitas global marketing network and from a pathway program that will help to prepare international students academically and personally for the challenges of university studies.” Darcy Rollins, Head of Division, Navitas University Partnerships North America, added: “Western International College will quickly become an attractive destination for students from around the world to prepare to enter Western University’s renowned programs. We look forward to introducing Western, the City of London, and Southwestern Ontario to international students and promoting the high-quality higher education experience for which both Canada and Western are known.” For more information, head to our website or WesternIC. https://lnkd.in/gzsmFusP https://www.westernic.ca/ #HigherEd #IntlEd #GlobalEducation #StudentSuccess #PathwayPrograms #UniversityPartners
