AustraLearn is a specialist in educational programs in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific for over 17 years. This concentrated focus has lead to AustraLearn’s expertise regarding the Australian and New Zealand higher education systems and has fostered continuous improvements and program expansions in both countries. In addition to study abroad opportunities throughout Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific, AustraLearn provides internship placements, volunteer components, custom designed programming, and full degree enrolment services.
AustraLearn provides essential services for successful integration. Our philosophy and commitment is to provide students with the best essential services for adjustment and integration in the host culture without adding unnecessary services that may “Americanize” their expense.
AustraLearn has a broad range of services and locations. We provide students with the widest range of universities, programs, and accommodation options while in Australia, New Zealand, or the South Pacific. AustraLearn’s fees cover tuition, student union fees, guidance with housing selection and meal plan preference, but the fee also includes the mandatory host country insurance and our acclaimed Program Introduction in Cairns, Australia, Rotorua, New Zealand, or Nadi, Fiji. Students are also given the option to participate in a no-fee organized volunteer project in their local community.
AustraLearn pays attention to the details. We strive for excellence with each student by communicating clearly and often. Our attention to detail assures the student, parents, and the home institution are well informed and kept up-to-date on the status of applications, emergency issues, billing, etc. Through our university affiliate program we are able to compliment and respond to the unique affiliate universities needs, policies, and procedures.
AustraLearn takes seriously the business of risk management. We evaluate and adapt our program and services on risk assessment and management in order to minimize risk exposure, protect students from the unexpected and enhance value added service. For the students’ benefit, AustraLearn allows North American students to pay in U.S. Dollars thus allowing us to leverage our expertise and purchasing power in the currency market. AustraLearn also has a comprehensive organizational liability plan.
AustraLearn has a detailed emergency response plan. Our official Emergency Response Plan (ERP) is maintained and assessed regularly to ensure its effectiveness in a time of crisis. We remain in contact with students while abroad and provide State Department travel warnings and security alerts via email. Our South Pacific Educational Support Centre plays a critical part in our ERP as they are available 24 hours a day for emergency support.
AustraLearn develops the whole you through re-entry. Upon returning home, program participants receive the AustraLearn Alumni Handbook. This handbook is designed to help students reflect on their overseas experience and help identify future professional and personal pursuits. Students are also invited to join our unique re-entry program is called enCompass.
