Education is a key factor and driving force in global development and change. As a result, international education is one of the world?s most dynamic industries, and looks set to remain so. Recent research forecasts that global demand for international education will rise from 1.8 million in 2000 to 7.2 million in 2025. On the surface, the future seems secure. But what are the challenges to this growth?  What are the implications of this increase in demand? More importantly, what strategies do we need to implement now in order to manage the opportunities offered by this growth and secure the success and prosperity it offers for the future?

 

Under the theme Securing the Future for International Education: Managing Growth and Diversity 2003 conference delegates will have the opportunity to examine the wide-ranging and significant implications of this enormous increase in demand for international education. The conference will specifically focus on ways in which institutions, education organisations, state and national governments can rise to the challenge of managing the two key issues of the future: growth and diversity.
