International students have to meet certain requirements to study in New Zealand, and it’s the responsibility of your institute to ensure that they do. To make sure you meet this requirement, consider the following tips:

– Make sure that international students receive accurate information about the visa application process. This can include information about the costs, documents required, and how long the process might take.
– Check that your institute has appropriate processes to ensure that all necessary documents are submitted and that visas are renewed on a timely basis.
– Ensure that you and your colleagues are familiar with the immigration requirements so that you can answer any queries international students may have.
– Consider establishing relationships with relevant government agencies to ensure that your institute is aware of any changes to the immigration requirements.

By following these tips, you will be taking steps to ensure that your institute meets the immigration requirements set out in the Code of Practice.
