Support for international students

    TAFE NSW provides help and support for all of your study-related needs. For over 50 years, we have warmly hosted international students and helped them with the skills and knowledge for a global future. We are delighted to welcome you to Australia, and wish you well in your studies.

    International Customer Experience Coordinators

    We know that leaving home to study in another country can be as challenging as it is exciting. That’s why at TAFE NSW we ensure every international student has the support of an International Customer Experience Coordinator who will:

    • arrange airport pick-up on arrival
    • organise your orientation program
    • meet you when you arrive at TAFE NSW
    • answer questions about your study program, and
    • assist you in accessing other support services.
