With India turning to the world to help meet its aim of up-skilling half a billion people, an Australian politician today suggested welcoming more Indian students in country's vocational education institutions.
Melbourne: The comments were made by the NSW's Labour leader , Luke Foley in Sydney in his speech. "India is turning to the world to help them meet their aim of up-skilling half a billion people," he said. "There is an opportunity for TAFE (Technical And Further Education) NSW to be part of it, providing training to hundreds of thousands, potentially millions of Indians, over coming years," Foley said.
Foley said TAFE had "put a toe in the water" in this area but should dramatically increase its activities in India and other countries. "Exporting its training expertise provides TAFE with the ability to earn a return which can then be invested in rebuilding the TAFE system for the people of NSW," he was quoted as saying by a ABC news report.
NSW is one of the favourite destinations for Indian students. In 2014, India was the third-largest source of international students in NSW. There were over 12,000 Indian students enrolled across Sydney and regional NSW in 2014, which is a 35 per cent increase since 2013. Two main areas to be targeted for the state are higher education, particularly post-graduate students and students in Vocational Education and Training sector.
