Panel Discussion: Making Sense of Policy Changes in Canada

The recent IRCC policy announcement of an intake cap on new international student permit applications and changes to eligibility for the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program will have profound and far-reaching implications for the international education sector in Canada. With the full consequences of these unprecedented policy changes still to be uncovered, it is a significant moment for the industry.

IDP is pleased to bring together a distinguished panel of industry leaders to dissect and make sense of the policy changes and discuss its broader effects on international education in Canada.

Moderated by Christine Wach, SVP, Partnerships and Stakeholder Engagement, IDP Connect USA & Canada, expert panelists Craig Riggs, Editor, ICEF Monitor, Livia Castellanos, Vice President, Student Recruitment, Marketing and Admissions, Navitas North America, and Mike Henniger, CEO, Illume Student Advisory Services will offer their perspectives and insights in response to this unique moment. The panel will discuss the ramifications of the policy changes for students, institutions, service providers, and the country as a whole, shedding light on key concerns and offering ideas for how to navigate a path forward.
