Case Study - StudyAdelaide Tours

Jane spoke on the engagement they’re doing with international students, and the tours provided within the regions to introduce students to our regional employers and the lifestyle our regions have to offer.

Over the past 16 months, some 1,500 students have registered with StudyAdelaide, with 250 students heading to the regions across 8 tours. These tours have already resulted in some of these students relocating to our regions to live and work.

David explained the role our regional RDAs play in connecting business and employers to these programs and helping them to succeed. Part of the challenge of attracting migrant students to regions is the misconceptions they have about what regional Australia has to offer.

The StudyAdelaide tours are invaluable in helping break down those misconceptions by facilitating face-to-face connections between students and employers, but without the regional RDA Workforce Programs helping drive the program, these connections could not be made.
