🇨🇳 From 1970 - 2015, China was the major contributor to student mobility growth, with recruiters and educators basing their assumptions about international students around the specific needs of Chinese students.

📈 Now, with a diverse range of students from South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Africa accounting for the largest proportion of internationally mobile students, the international sector’s understanding of student needs is evolving.

📖 To meet these ever-changing needs, the sector needs to engage with the data, conducting more market research, promoting a greater array of services for new enrolments, reviewing websites and existing channels of information, and providing better guidance on visas and work rights.

As part of our Together for Transparency initiative, ICEF is pleased to announce a new strategic partnership with National Indian Students and Alumni Union UK - NISAU, one of the most influential international student advocacy bodies. This collaboration strengthens our shared commitment to ethical and responsible international student recruitment.

With more than a million Indian students studying abroad, the majority relying on agents for key decisions, the sector needs clear standards and trustworthy information. Working with NISAU, we will develop joint guidance, share insights, and promote practices that support transparency and better outcomes across the UK–India corridor.

This partnership reflects our ongoing work to raise integrity in international education and to support students and institutions with reliable, evidence-based frameworks.

More updates will follow.
