11. Recommendations from Academic BoardSubsequent to an internal check of Academic Board approvals, the recommendations outlined belowwere inadvertently not provided to Council over the previous two years.

Associate Professor Kim Dowling, Chair, Academic Board provided the Committee with backgroundinformation in relation to the recommendation and outlined that the courses are not new but only re-badging of programs.

The Committee considered and approved the recommendation forwarded from the Academic Boardmeeting AB 2/16 held Wednesday, 13 April 2016:

Date: 20 June 2017

Introduction This report provides an update on international matters organised in the following areas: (i) International student recruitment and marketing, (ii) International admissions, (iii) Study abroad and mobility (iv) Compliance, (v) Partner relations, (vi) Partnership development and (vii) other matters.

International student recruitment and marketing

Recruitment trips There have been recent recruitment visits to:

India and Nepal (May)

Malaysia (May).

At the present time, the team is planning a recruitment trip to India in early August based around two agent events. These will be used to ‘launch’ Brisbane and Berwick, and provide general updates about the University.

In addition to recruitment for Ballarat and Gippsland campuses, staff are also supporting recruitment of students to Brisbane, and are presently developing a recruitment plan for Berwick for 2018.

2018 Course Guide We have forwarded to faculties a final draft of the 2018 International Course Guide. At the present time, the guide does include programs in Brisbane, and will include reference to programs in Berwick if we receive CRICOS registration for this teaching location during June.

International admissions

Semester 2, 2017 At the present time, indications are that Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) numbers for study on-campus in semester 2, 2017 will be on a par with, or just under, CoE numbers for semester 2, 2016. Compared with the same time in 2016, applications are up for next semester (40%), offers are up (56%), and acceptances are also up (25%). However, the increase in offers and acceptances is partly a timing issue – related to bringing forward applications from our articulating students in China.

Agenda Paper 16.5


Memorandum

Numbers for articulating students from China partners will be smaller in semester 2, 2017. We expect 78 students on campus - 75 from Shenzhen Polytechnic, Shaoguan University and Baiyun University, and three students from Hebei Institute of Science and Technology.

In addition to processing international student applications, team members are providing ongoing training to support our partners’ admissions teams.

Study abroad and mobility We have submitted to the Commonwealth Government eight applications (totalling 52 students) for Endeavour scholarships. These include:

• MBA students to Dalian, China;

• MBA/MPA student to Bangladesh;

• Outgoing exchange student to Mannheim University, Germany (new agreement);

• Outgoing exchange student to University of South Denmark;

• Teacher placements to Chester, UK;

• Teacher placements to Germany;

• Teacher placements to NZ;

• Teacher placements to North London, UK.

Compliance

CRICOS registration The application for CRICOS registration for our Brisbane location was approved by TEQSA on 15 June 2017. We lodged the application for Berwick on Friday 28 May 2017 and hope to receive a positive outcome soon.

April visa outcomes We had 21 visa rejections in May - for students from India (10), Nepal (2), Sri Lanka (1) and China (1). Current rejections to the end of May stand at 59, compared with 148 in 2016 and 63 in 2015. We continue to work with partners, as well as our support staff in India, to identify strategies to reduce visa rejection rates.

Provider risk index Our current Provider Risk Index has held constant at 2.33. The majority of our risk (70%) continues to be attributable to visa cancellations, unlawful non-citizens and protection visa applications which occur after student visas are issued by the Department.

We continue to expect our Provider Risk Index to remain under 2.7 at 30 June, which is the next trigger date for any changes to settings within the Department of Border Protection (DIBP) Immigration Portal. This will see the University return to its risk rating of 2.

Partner audits A complete summary of the 2016 audits will be presented at the May meeting of International and Partners’ Committee. The audit schedule for 2017 will also be presented at that meeting. 2017 audits will occur between August and November.


Memorandum

Partner relations The Manager, Partner Relations is currently finalising a new edition of the University’s Partner Provider Operations Manual. The updated version will reflect changes to policies and procedures which have occurred over the past twelve months and links to new materials, services and supports. We expect to release the new version by the end of June.

Partnership development In the partnership development space, we have been working on the following articulation arrangements:

Faculty of Education and Arts with Xi’An University;

FedUni (Gippsland) with Taizhou University in China.

We have also received an invitation from our China representative, Dr Tie Zhou from China Eduventures, to consider articulation opportunities with Xi’An International Studies University (XASYU) and Xi’An Siyuan University (XASYU). This is at the very initial stage of consideration.

A small sub-group of the International and Partners’ Working Group is working to clarify and document the process and associated forms for international articulation arrangements.

Other business In addition to matters reported elsewhere, we have been working collaboratively in several other areas:

• Partner attrition – preliminary information about attrition rates for international students who commenced at partnerlocations in 2016 is concerning. We have formed a small working group with relevant faculty personnel (and partnerrepresentatives, in time) to explore additional strategies to reduce attrition at partner locations. The outcomes of thisgroup will feed into the University’s overarching retention and success initiative.

• International student welfare grant – with the Ballarat Regional Multicultural Council, we have applied for grantfunding from Study Melbourne to initiate a twelve month project to connect our international students with membersof the various cultural associations in Ballarat.

• Increasing Ballarat’s attractiveness as a destination for International Students – we continue to work with the City ofBallarat, Visit Ballarat, Regional Development Victoria and other key stakeholders to implement strategies toincrease the city’s attractiveness as a destination for international students.

7.30 Provision of Grades or Marks to FBS StudentsThis item was discussed at Programs Committee meeting on 28 April 2017 and it was agreed that feedback should be obtained from staff within our Faculty. Both Heads of Schools circulated a consultation paper for review and formulation of a Faculty position. Currently our Faculty provides students with Grades rather than Marks via FDL for all assessment tasks, whereas other Faculties do the opposite. Students prefer that Marks for assessment tasks be visible in FDL over Grades prior to exams. It was agreed that transparency is required to adhere to student retention and success.

Members of the Programs Committee agreed to change our Faculty’s practice from providing Grades to Marks to ensure consistency with the rest of the University. This will be effective from Semester II 2017.

Action: FDL System – Helen Ryan to follow up the adjustment required within FDL Agenda Item at our Faculty’s July 2017 Forum so staff are aware of the change

Resolution FBSB 4/17/31Federation Business School Board approves and forwards to Curriculum Committee for noting that our Faculty will provide students Marks instead of Grades via FDL for items of assessment excluding exams.ECM 173791

7.31 SINO Study Plan audit – Substitution of Tourism Courses:The Bachelor of Management (Tourism) (MM5.TRSM) program structure which was entered into FDL Grades did not fully resemble the program structure that was approved to run and subsequently study plans are incorrect. Course substitutions are being offered by Partners when other courses are not available. Some of the FDL study plans are incorrect with limited or no notes in FDL outlining the reasoning why the course substitutes exist. The recommendation provides context and resolution to the issues.





Resolution FBSB 4/17/32Federation Business School Board approves and forwards to Curriculum Committee for noting the substitution of courses as listed on the documentation provided pertaining to Tourism students at SINO. ECM 173795

7.32 SINO Study Plan audit – Substitution of Marketing CoursesThe Bachelor of Management (Tourism) (MM5.TRSM) program structure which was entered into FDL Grades did not fully resemble the program structure that was approved to run and subsequently study plans are incorrect. Course substitutions are being offered by Partners when other courses are not available. Some of the FDL study plans are incorrect with limited or no notes in FDL outlining the reasoning why the course substitutes exist. The recommendation provides context and resolution to the issues. It is also noted that whenever there are no Tourism courses available, marketing has been deemed to be the closest aligned courses and are mapped against outcomes.
