Overview

Education New Zealand Manapou ki te Ao (“ENZ”) is seeking a research agency to design and undertake qualitative research and analysis to inform the development of our international student long-term retention strategy.

What we need

ENZ has recently undertaken quantitative research regarding transition rates from secondary school to tertiary study. We now require comprehensive qualitative research to further enhance our understanding of student preferences and motivations in relation to longer term study within New Zealand.

This is intended to inform the development of the Long-Term Retention Strategy including our potential regional and sector-based projects, promotion and recruitment activities. The research also has the potential to inform other ENZ workstreams.

What’s important to us
The International Education Strategy 2018-2030 (NZIES) aims to create an environment where international education can thrive and deliver economic, social and cultural benefits for New Zealand. It builds on New Zealand’s quality education system and focuses on delivering good outcomes for international students, domestic students and New Zealand international education providers.


ENZ is committed to working in partnership with a suitable research agency and using robust research and market intelligence to assist in achieving the following specific strategic goals from the NZIES:

International students undertaking pathways to a higher level of study - Double the uptake of education pathways by 2030

International students studying in the regions - An increasing proportion of value coming from the regions by 2030
