International Education in NSW — Future Directions

This years ITAB conference will be held at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth on June 4.

This is creating significant opportunities for English language teaching providers, both on and off shore. Panel speakers include Mark Raven, Chief Executive, NEAS Ltd; David Riordan, Institute Director, Sydney TAFE and Peter Mackey, Director, StudyNSW. 

Sharing Good News in English Language Teaching

NEAS is always on the look out for ways to celebrate and support the efforts of our quality English language teaching providers. While we aren't able to broadcast all of the successes that our enthusiastic providers achieve, we love to share good news wherever possible.

If your NEAS Quality Endorsed ELT centre has a good news story to share, please send us a summary (no more than 100 word please!) and a photo or graphic in support to admin@neas.org.au.  As a guide, we seek to share achievements that showcase the very best of what our NEAS centres are capable of.  We'll do our best to run one of these each week where the space and circumstances allow.

NEAS News reaches over 5,000 recipients every week, read by providers, agents, governments and stakeholders globally!
