New Zealand as a Provider of Transnational Education

New Zealand, a relatively small country, has decided to increase its presence on the international market for higher education. To this effect, it has liberalized its visa requirements and has formed a national NGO, Education New Zealand, to co-ordinate the promotion abroad of New Zealand education, particularly higher education, in a number of ways. New Zealand strongly favours the removal of trade barriers in education, including barriers to the recognition of qualifications earned internationally.
