IEAA is Australia’s leading association for international education. We strive to empower professionals, engage institutions and enhance Australia’s reputation as a provider of world-class education.
Together with affiliated bodies, corporate partners and government, we work together to promote the benefits of international education to the broader community through three strategic pillars.

Through our Australian and global partnerships, industry-focused research and representation, IEAA regularly advocates, represents and champions international education in Australia.
