Czech Republic education market profile

The Czech Republic is among the most stable and wealthy of the post-communist states of Central and Eastern Europe, and is a significant market for Australian education exports.

The number of students choosing to study in Australia is considerable, given the small Czech population and the distance involved.

The majority of Czech student enrolments were in the English language sector, followed by or combined with vocational education and training (VET).
