My first episode focuses on the impact of Covid-19 on international education in New Zealand. I am joined by Beth Knowles, International Director at Ara Institute of Canterbury, Philippa Jones, International Director at Eastern Institute of Technology in Napier, and Farhana Nalar, Manager - International Market Development at Unitec in Auckland. In a wide-ranging discussion, we talk about the impact of Covid-19, whether we could've been better prepared, the future of international student recruitment in a post-Covid world, reopening of borders, and government support and flexibility for higher education institutions.
