China Warns Students Against Enrolling in Private Colleges in Australia

The Chinese Ministry of Education is warning students against enrolling in private Australian colleges following the collapse last month of several vocational institutions, The Australian reported. China currently has 120,000 students studying in Australia, according to China Daily. One thousand of them were stranded after the sudden closing last month of four campuses run by Global Campus Management Group, a private company. The Chinese warnings prompted Australian government officials, who have been struggling to rebuild the battered image of Australia’s vocational-education industry, to reissue a list of approved education providers.
