How can we help you?
English Australia believes very strongly in the importance of the work done by agents. Agents play an important role in providing advice and information to help students choose which language centre and course is right for them.
English Australia supports agents in a number of different ways.

The best source of statistics for the English language sector is the annual Report produced by English Australia with funding support from the Australian government. This Report includes all students regardless of their visa type (the 2014 survey indicated that 34% of English language students held visitor, working holiday or other visas and are therefore not captured by either the DIBP or DET statistics). This is the Executive Summary of the annual report (which is made available to all interested stakeholders at no charge). The full 150 page Report, with detailed tables and charts, is made available free of charge to all colleges that participate in the survey and to government departments. Copies of the full Report are also available to other interested parties for a fee. |

This report presents the results of the 2011 English Language Barometer (ELB), an ELICOS sector-wide student satisfaction survey coordinated by English Australia, funded by AEI and run by i-graduate. It compares the 2011 outcomes with those from the 2009 survey as well as the survey results for universities in 2011. The report is structured in three parts: Part 1 is a summary of the ELB findings; Part 2 aims to consider the key themes emerging from the ELB and describes ways that providers might address these targeted areas to ensure continuous improvement of the students’ experience; Part 3 provides a set of practical templates, tools and information to encourage continuous improvement and enhance student satisfaction. |

A group of countries that are some of the most popular destinations for international students are acting to improve the integrity of education recruitment agents. The move aims to ensure that students receive a better service when they use agents to help them apply for school, college or university places overseas. Education officials from the UK, Australia, Ireland and New Zealand have issued a joint statement of principles for ethical international student recruitment, following talks in London in March 2012 hosted by the British Council. The "London Statement" stresses the need for professionalism and ethical responsibility on the part of the commission-based agents who help many schools, colleges and universities to recruit international students. |
