Just returned from a wonderful overseas marketing trip with Glenice Ford from WISEL.
It seems many students in Thailand and Vietnam are interested in coming to New Zealand to study - NZ certainly offers a wide variety of courses covering most educational pathways. Lots of questions were asked and I hope we answered them all well – we certainly took a huge amount of college brochures and flyers (got pinged for excess luggage, and that was on the way there!) and left our Agents with a lot of reading material. Roses chocolates always helps the brain to focus on the small print.
Hoping to complete the Immigration Advisors course through BOP Polytechnic next year – Just waiting for the NZQA approval so they can take the enrolments.
Our company does not offer a service for immigration advice (though we do have an Immigration lawyer on hand if need be) because all of our offshore agents are well trained in visa processing in their own right - but with changes occurring all the time it will be a good way for us to keep in the loop.
Busy time for all of our offshore education agents getting students organized and preparing their visa applications – lets hope they all arrive safely and in time for the 2012 start date in February. We are ready to assist with any support they may need once they arrive in New Zealand.
