TRANSCRIPT
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Source countries
• A key purpose in measuring country costs is to determine where toinvest in future
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Many international students are recruited from Australia
• In 23 universities in 2011, 32% ofcommencing international students recruited from Australia as asource country, 24% of spending on Australia as a source country
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Australia has to be a source country, and for Australia to be a source country, the definition of a source country has to be the country from which the international student applied to study at your university, the application submission location, not country of citizenship or permanent home residence
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• To prescribe DIISRTE data for country costs ignores that there is no DIISRTE data on country costs or applications or offers
• Universities will have needed to maintain their own records on country costs, questionnaire asks for that data without a DIISRTE prescription
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Source country simplification
• Source Country is the application submission location, the country from which the student applied to study at your university, regardless
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Number of channels
• Directors decided to exclude the two IDP channels
• Reviewing that decision
Benchmarking 2012 in 2013
• Scholarships
• One of the most important areas of benchmarking
• In 2011, 7.7% of revenue on scholarships, cf 3.6% on commissions
Mobility
• There was outbound mobility before Asian century
• Before reverse Colombo Plan
• And a lot of outbound mobility was to Asia, including China
Mobility 2011 in 2012
• 12.3% of completing Australian undergraduates (one in eight), cf 9.1% of US undergraduates, 13.8% of US bachelor students
• 32.7% to Asia, cf US 12.0%
• 9.7% to China, Australia’s second biggest destination, cf US 5.3% to China, US fifth biggest destination
Mobility 2012 in 2013
• Chaney: data sources on the destinations of Australian students studying offshore are still in a state of early development
• Continue to include detailed outbound mobility information (fields/ destinations) in paper from AIEC presentation
Mobility 2012 in 2013
• Destination countries
• Add Austria
• Any need to make the destination country list “as many destination countries as you choose”?
Mobility 2012 in 2013
• Combined or double degree up to 2010
• Combined or double degree including Law (7.8%)
• Combined or double degree not including Law (5.3%)
• Commerce/Law; Commerce/Other than Law; Law/Other than Commerce; Other Double Degree
Data Collection
• Two years so far, 2011 and 2012
• Incomplete
• Lack of completeness is a problem
• Quality
• Alternative approach
Data Collection HEIMS Approach
• Collection of data directly from HEIMS (the Higher Education Information Management System) used by universities for reporting data to DIISRTE
• Three times per year
• This year and last year
Data Collection HEIMS Approach
• One XL flat spreadsheet for this year, one for last year
• In each case there should be one row of data for each international student enrolled in your university
• Output is a pivot table just like an AEI pivot table
Data Collection HEIMS Approach
• 310 course of study type code
• 358 citizen/resident indicator
• 534 course of study commencement date
• 477 postcode or overseas country code location of campus/delivery location
• 569 type of operation of campus
• 320 location code of permanent home residence
Data Collection HEIMS Approach
• Next steps
• Simple/technical version? Audience?
• Compulsory?
• Working group?
Student Progress
• Commencing international bachelor students passed 84.75% of what they attempted in 2011, domestic 84.35%
• In 23 universities, commencing international undergraduates did better
• In 11 universities, Australians did better
• In three universities, no difference (less than one percentage point)
Student Progress
• Increasing numbers of Australian universities are setting entry standards, including English language entry standards, for international undergraduates that lead to successful outcomes, are monitoring academic performance and are providing English language and study skills support

• Demand for university places driving recovery
• Green shoots in higher education and pathways to higher education
• Two speed industry• Vocational education and
training down and staying down

What Others Say
• English Australia: 2012 divided into two distinct halves, demonstrating quite clearly a reversal of previous three year decline
• Navitas: demand is continuing to improve for Australian university qualifications following two years of decline
• RBA February 2013: liaison suggests education exports stabilised after having declined since 2009

• VET on its way from 33% of enrolments in 2009 to 16% in 2020
• Issues about appetites and capacities in universities
