Australia cracks down on ‘dodgy’ international education players.

Australia’s government has vowed to overhaul international education policies amid concerns that students, colleges and agents are exploiting weaknesses in the visa regime.

Education minister Jason Clare said Canberra would target “dodgy and unscrupulous operators” who were “trying to take advantage” of foreign students by encouraging them to treat study as a “backdoor to work”.

“This is a serious threat to the integrity of one of our biggest exports and it has got to be stamped out,” Mr Clare told the Australian Financial Review Higher Education Summit in Melbourne.
