International markets

Education is Australia’s third largest service export. Over 323,300 international students are enrolled to study in Australia in 2007, with vocational education and training (VET) students comprising 25% of this market.

The largest source of foreign VET students is currently the broad Asian region, particularly China and India where the Australian VET system is highly regarded.

There are many opportunities for a registered training organisation to deliver training to international students and get involved in the growing market.
