Project Committee FAQs
Project background
The project aims to tackle key challenges faced by international students in the Australian workforce including language barriers, undervaluation of qualifications, visa restrictions, and a tough job market. Immediate benefits include better-informed employment decisions, reducing vulnerability to exploitation, and increased access to support services. Long-term goals involve enhancing job market participation and reduced rates of exploitation to improve student well-being and community integration.
