The ISANA International Education Association is pleased to announce the release of the National Code Tutorial instructional tool.

“ISANA , supported by the Australian Government’s Enabling Growth and Innovation Program (EGI), has developed and will host a National Code Tutorial to deliver a tool for international education professionals to understand and meet their obligations under the National Code of Practice for Providers of Education and Training to Overseas Students 2018 (the National Code)” says Bronwyn Gilson, ISANA National President.

“This tool provides an interactive and well-referenced content that will cover each of the International Education industry sectors and will test the users’ understanding of the National Code’s compliance requirements through scenarios and quizzes”.

ISANA’s members work at educational institutions and organisations (public and private) in a wide range of roles covering international student services and support, advocacy, teaching and policy development. Since 2007 an ISANA developed Tutorial had been used by industry professionals to acquire knowledge of the National Code. With the introduction of the National Code 2018 ISANA secured a 2018 Enabling Growth and Innovation Program (EGI) grant to develop a new and interactive tool.

“With development supported by the Department of Education, Skills and Employment, the National Code Tutorial will be a useful tool for international education industry professionals to ensure they are compliant with the National Code” said Gilson.

“I would like to acknowledge and thank the ISANA Project team led by Mary Ann Seow (Project Officer), Molly Bonnefin, Bronwyn Gilson and Phoebe Thiessen (Secretariat); Paula Durance, Danielle Hartridge and Jack Dunstan from IEKnowledgebase, and the Department of Education, Skills and Employment.
