Hand-in-Hand Workshop 2025
Partnering for the Future: “Working together to transform global education collaboration”
5th Feb – 8th Feb 2025
Geelong, Australia
In February 2025 AEMG Education will host our annual Hand-in-Hand Workshop.
The Hand-in-Hand Workshop is an important opportunity for senior representatives from our Global Partner universities to get together, share information and learn from best practice. In the workshop sessions we will consider strategies and initiatives implemented by our university partners, working collaboratively with AEMG Education, to create mutually beneficial outcomes for all, including our Chinese Partner universities.
2025 is an important year for AEMG Education as we adapt to changes in international education policy in Australia, new approaches to international education in China and new governments in the UK, US and New Zealand. Hand in Hand is an opportunity to share strategies and innovate together to create sustainable and accessible education offerings.
