The Education Services for Overseas Students Re-registration of Providers and Other Measures Bill 2009
[From the Senate Committee website]
On 20 August 2009 the Senate referred the Education Services for Overseas Students Amendment (Re-registration of Providers and Other Measures) Bill 2009 for inquiry and report.
The bill amends the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 to improve processes ensuring the accountability of international education and training services providers. This includes the re-registration of all institutions currently on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students by 31 December 2010. It also introduces provisions for two new registration criteria and requires the publication by providers of the names of education agents who represent them and promote their education services.
Submissions should be received by 11 September 2009. The reporting date is 16 October 2009.
