At the event, the New Zealand Ambassador to Vietnam, H.E. Tredene Dobson, emphasized education has always been at the centre of the New Zealand-Vietnam relationship. It has fueled development and trade connections but most importantly - it supports our people to people connections.
"New Zealand’s borders officially opened to all students on August 1st. We are so looking forward to welcoming back the hard-working capable students of Vietnam who bring with them the vibrant Vietnamese culture. We are also looking forward to restarting our scholarship programmes specifically for Vietnamese students in the near future. New Zealand Education Fair 2022 is a great opportunity for Vietnamese parents and students to get the latest information about New Zealand education, and how our education providers can support the next generation of Vietnamese business leaders, entrepreneurs, scientists, tech-moguls, and creatives”, she said.
For his part, Mr. Ben Burrowes, Regional Director, Asia at Education New Zealand, said: “Overcoming the challenges posed by the pandemic, we are now focused on rebuilding and reshaping our international education industry towards sustainability with a variety of innovative approaches. In that context, we are ready to welcome back students from all over the world to New Zealand, and ensure that international students enjoy the ultimate benefits of a New Zealand education whether they choose to study onshore, online, or via joint programmes."
According to Mr. Ben Burrowes, New Zealand's education is not only known for its world-class quality, but also for its student-centred educational philosophy. It is also a safe, friendly, and welcoming environment.
"We hope that the New Zealand Education Fairs 2022 will be a great opportunity for students and parents to learn and experience New Zealand education’s aspirations, and from there, make informed choices for their future”, added Mr. Burrowes.
