    On 13 February 2024, TEQSA:

    • Approved, under section 10 of the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 (ESOS Act), the registration of the Skyline Higher Education Australia Pty Ltd (SHEA) on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS) for a period of 5 years until 13 February 2029.
    • Imposed, under section 10B of the ESOS Act, one condition on the CRICOS registration of the Skyline Higher Education Australia Pty Ltd.

    ESOS Condition 1 - Admission, Recruitment and Support of Overseas Students

    1. By 13 February 2025, SHEA must engage a suitably qualified independent expert to undertake a review of SHEA's first year of delivery to overseas students. The expert and terms of reference for this review must be approved by TEQSA. The review should assess the effectiveness of the implementation of SHEA's policies and procedures in ensuring:
      1. responsible recruitment of overseas students
      2. its education agents act ethically, honestly and in the best interests of overseas students.
      3. adequate monitoring and support of overseas students
    2. By 13 May 2025, SHEA must provide TEQSA the review report, evidence of consideration of the review report, and any actions in response to the report, by its relevant governing bodies.

    Main reasons for the decision

    TEQSA made this decision considering the significant risks in the recruitment, admissions and support of overseas students, and the heightened risks for a newly registered provider with no track record of delivery to overseas students. The decision to impose a condition was made on the basis that Skyline Higher Education Australia Pty Ltd, may not meet, or continue to meet, all objectives of the National Code of Practice for Providers of Education and Training to Overseas Students 2018 in relation to the recruitment, admission and support of overseas students.

    Application to withdraw decision.

    In accordance with section 10B(1)(b) of the ESOS Act, TEQSA may vary or revoke a condition imposed on the registration of a registered provider at any time. TEQSA will consider any application by a provider for variation or revocation of a condition.
