Aside from testing, one of AEAS' other core services for Australian schools is in-country marketing events. For over 30 years, AEAS events have been a key engagement platform for Australian schools to market to international families and education agents, are preferred because of their school-sector only focus and excellent value for money.
The AEAS Team has recently returned from a highly successful series of Australian school events in Thailand and Vietnam. 25 Australian schools joined the AEAS-organised parent exhibitions and agent workshops in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok over the space of two weekends in September.
On Friday 21 May, AEAS held its first face to face event since the pandemic begin. Hosted by St Leonard's College in Melbourne, over 60 representatives from some of Victoria's best private schools, the State Government, and business gathered at our International Education Seminar & Networking Opportunity to reconnect with colleagues and make new connections.
32 hours, 45 schools, 25 agents, 300 families and over 1000+ individual meetings - these are just some of the headline statistics from another set of successful AEAS Australian Schools Online Events. Despite Australia’s borders having now been closed for over 12 months, we were very pleased to see families and agents engaging so enthusiastically with our participating schools.
On Wednesday 4 November, AEAS held its second International Education Update Webinar for Australian schools. Over 200 school and industry representatives participated in the webinar, and heard state by state updates on the planning underway to return international students to Australian classrooms for the 2021 school year.
