This could entail supporting exploration of blended learning options and adapting study and post-graduation work visas to accommodate more flexible learning options, thus maintaining the competitiveness of their international education sectors without placing receiving communities and immigration systems under undue strain. This could also involve testing the potential of new trends, such as microcredentialling and offshore professional skills development. Governments around the world have invested in opening up their educational institutions, knowledge, and networks to the next generation of skilled workers, recognizing not just the short-term financial benefit but also the longer-term ripple effects of enhancing global and domestic skills markets.

Several countries are seeking to expand their international education offerings, which will affect domestic demand, just as changing geopolitical fault lines may shift who is encouraged to study where. International student intentions are sensitive to a range of factors, some of which are beyond national government control, such as changing conditions in their countries of origin; incorporating what is known about student intentions and decision-making will support more realistic planning. And at the same time, planning for future demographic change, differences in regional growth prospects, and changing skills needs (including major shifts linked to, for example, the green transition) should all be part of this discussion. The European Commission’s March 2025 communication on a Union of Skills reflects this more integrated approach to future economic development and includes a target of 350,000 tertiary-level international students per year by 2030 (up from about 249,000 in 2022), as part of a \"Europe talent magnet framework.\"", "attrs": null, "subkind": "paragraph", "toolName": null, "toolSlug": null, "confidence": null, "componentId": "f073d5b8-7b7f-45f5-9cca-e690f1183c24", "frameworkName": null, "frameworkSlug": null }, { "bbox": { "h": 0.08, "w": 0.7, "x": 0.15, "y": 0.8 }, "kind": "quote", "text": "Governments around the world have invested in opening up their educational institutions, knowledge, and networks to the next generation of skilled workers, recognizing not just the short-term financial benefit but also the longer-term ripple effect of enhancing global and domestic skills markets.", "attrs": null, "subkind": "pull-quote", "toolName": null, "toolSlug": null, "confidence": null, "componentId": "f254decc-ebce-40a1-b06b-da2ca02202f4", "frameworkName": null, "frameworkSlug": null }, { "bbox": { "h": 0.03, "w": 0.7, "x": 0.15, "y": 0.9 }, "kind": "source-note", "text": "81 European Commission, “Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament, the European Council, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions: The Union of Skills” (COM [2025] 90 final, March 5, 2025).", "attrs": null, "subkind": null, "toolName": null, "toolSlug": null, "confidence": null, "componentId": "8b5ce5e5-01d8-4dcd-a32b-8e49b009ad23", "frameworkName": null, "frameworkSlug": null }, { "bbox": { "h": 0.03, "w": 0.7, "x": 0.15, "y": 0.04 }, "kind": "title", "text": "INTERNATIONAL STUDENT MOBILITY: A POST-PANDEMIC RESET OR A BROADER CHALLENGE?", "attrs": null, "subkind": "headline", "toolName": null, "toolSlug": null, "confidence": null, "componentId": "a50a29c6-9f55-4ba9-9e5a-61c316f055a6", "frameworkName": null, "frameworkSlug": null } ], "metrics": [], "tools": [], "frameworks": [], "arcBeats": [ { "to": 25, "from": 24, "beatId": "840b26da-e065-4451-8aaa-a25b6ab141a4", "arcName": "Monroe's Motivated Sequence", "arcSlug": "monroes-sequence", "beatName": "Satisfaction", "beatSlug": "monroes-sequence-satisfaction", "evidence": "The document provides a conclusion and key takeaways.", "position": 2, "confidence": 0.8, "parentBeatName": "Turn", "parentBeatSlug": "turn" } ], "loops": [], "imagePathAlt": null, "thumbSrc": null, "thumbSrcAlt": null, "locked": true }
