Navitas
Winner, Education and Training Award

The university pathway concept was first pioneered in 1994 by Rod Jones and Peter Larsen who had a vision to help students from around the world realise their ambitions by providing them with pathways to university in Australia.
This approach offers students intensive support to begin their university studies while preparing them to join a partner university’s mainstream degree program in their second year.

Navitas now assists over 20,000 students each year to enter higher education in 30 colleges and universities around Australia and throughout the world, including the USA, the UK, Canada, Kenya, Sri Lanka and Singapore.
Since 1994, Navitas has contributed well over $1 billion in direct royalties and flow-on student revenues to Australian university partners.

The company is also Australia’s largest provider of English language courses as well as providing migrant settlement services, workforce placement and training and student recruitment services across the country.
Navitas employs approximately 3,000 staff in Australia and generates over 70% of its revenue in the Australian market.

Navitas’ aims to continue its strong growth via its commitment to student support, quality educational outcomes and partnerships with leading universities across the globe.
