In Australia, you have the freedom to choose the study option to suit your goals. You can study at universities, vocational education, schools and English language training. These sectors are linked so you can move easily from one qualification level to the next and from one institution to another.

Graduating with an Australian qualification will give you a competitive edge. Other governments, international employers and institutions around the world recognise the value of an Australian qualification and the high quality of our education system.

When it comes time to return home after completing your studies, you may find it useful to join an Australian Alumni network. The Australian Government provides help in your country to contact these networks. Some offices help organise alumni functions and assist Australian institutions to conduct in-country graduation ceremonies for international students who have returned home.

Australian Government offices have also been very active in developing Memoranda of Understanding and qualifications recognition between Australia and other countries. They can also advise you where to find information about employment and further study opportunities in Australia and in your country.
