  • Navitas Submission
    Inquiry into the principles of the Higher Education and Research Reform Bill 2014 Submission from Navitas Limited to the Senate Education and Employment References Committee Navitas Limited welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission to the Senate Education and Employment References Committee Inquiry into the Principles of the Higher Education and Research Reform Bill 2014 and related matters. This submission addresses three of the seven matters referred to the Committee. a) Principles of the Higher Education and Research Reform Bill 2014 Navitas supports a well-regulated, innovative, diverse, globally connected public and private education sector and believes that the Higher Education and Research Reform Amendment Bill 2014 currently before the Parliament puts fairness and choice into the system for students as well as providing reforms that allow the development of a more sustainable, ‘future ready’ higher education sector. Navitas believes that Australian higher education should be based on principles of: Student Choice By opening up access to non-university higher education providers (NUHEPs) the Bill provides students with significantly increased choices as to where, how, what and when they can study, including access to niche specialist and applied skills courses, more innovative and flexible teaching models, and linkages between students and industry. Access The Bill improves access for students from low socio-economic status backgrounds, rural and remote regions, mature-age learners, and non-traditional learners. Navitas supports reforms that will open up demand driven funding to non-university, TEQSA accredited higher education providers at both the sub-bachelor and bachelor levels. Evidence shows NUHEPs are highly skilled in delivering: Tailored, sub-bachelor programs for students from low SES and other non- traditional backgrounds.

  • ASX RELEASE 15 May 2015 Navitas Enters Agreement to Jointly Own And
    ASX RELEASE 15 May 2015 Navitas enters agreement to jointly own and operate the University of Canberra College with the University of Canberra Global education services provider Navitas Limited (ASX: NVT) has today announced the execution of agreements with the University of Canberra (UC) under which Navitas will purchase 51% equity in University of Canberra College Pty Limited (UCC), an existing pathway college located on the University’s main Canberra campus, for approximately $4.9m and then jointly operate UCC with UC. Under the structure UCC will be jointly owned by Navitas and UC and governed by a board of directors with equal Navitas and UC representation. UCC is already capitalised to an appropriate level to fund expected working capital needs and accordingly it is not envisaged that Navitas and UC will need to contribute additional funds to UCC. There will be no net debt on the balance sheet on acquisition. Navitas will fund the acquisition through its existing funding facilities and will equity account its share of the earnings of UCC in its Group financial statements. This collaboration will enhance UCC’s capacity to recruit more students from a wider range of countries around the world and to deliver both existing and new programs. UCC, which commenced teaching in 1998, will continue providing university pathways, English-language and diploma courses to international and domestic students - with those who successfully complete a UC College program being eligible to continue their studies in degree courses at UC. UCC diploma programs include business, business informatics, communication, design, information technology and science. UCC enrol approximately 1,300 university pathway students and 900 English language students annually.

  • Navitas Position Paper
    Growing International Education in Regional Australia Navitas Position Paper December 2018 Navitas offers the following key points for consideration by the Council for International Education, relevant federal, state and local government agencies, the international education sector and related industry sectors regarding how to growth international education in regional Australia. Key considerations Definition and language of ‘regional’ As a leading global education provider – and one that has a substantial presence in Australia, including beyond metropolitan Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane – Navitas is keen to explore, test and leverage ways to grow the number of international students outside of these major cities. Our university partnerships include many campuses outside the three major metropolitan centres of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane: • James Cook University – Townsville and Cairns campuses • Griffith University – Gold Coast campus • University of Newcastle – Callaghan campus • Western Sydney University – Parramatta campus • University of Canberra – Bruce campus • Deakin University – Geelong Waurn Ponds and Geelong Waterfront campuses • La Trobe University – Bendigo campus (in discussion) • University of Adelaide – Adelaide campus • University of South Australia – Adelaide campus • Curtin University – Bentley campus • Edith Cowan University – Mount Lawley and Joondalup campuses • Charles Darwin University – Casuarina campus Navitas’ Careers and Industry Division also has campuses beyond Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane: • SAE Creative Media Institute – campuses in Byron Bay, Adelaide and Perth • Australian College of Applied Psychology – campuses in Adelaide (and soon in Perth) Navitas believes that ‘destination diversity’ is the objective of policy and programs that aim to promote ‘regional’ study options. For this reason, Navitas suggests that in international education, all levels of governments, providers and other stakeholders adopt a definition of ‘regional’ that is ‘non-major metropolitan’.
