The principal purpose of the Health Institute Australasia is to provide education.
The Australian Government has fact sheet for international students which contains important information about their rights and responsibilities while studying in Australia. As a registered provider of services to overseas students, there are quite specific and legally binding requirements imposed on providers and students under the ESOS Act.
The Australian Government Department of Home Affairs) enforces those pretty strongly, effectively forcing providers to be their ‘agent on the ground’ and report any actual or potential issues with student visa requirements as soon as they are aware (or could reasonably be expected to be aware) of the issue in a timely manner.
The main issues the Department of Home Affairs are interested in are:-
As a registered provider we have a system to record attendance and trigger follow up events when absences reach defined levels. We also need to record all actions and correspondence to demonstrate to DIBP in retrospect that we did everything reasonable to manage the issue.
If you have a student visa, you must complete your course within the standard full-time completion period, unless certain circumstances apply which are generally those beyond the control of the student and which have an impact on the student’s course progress or well-being, such as:-

Failure to uphold the above-mentioned international student conditions may result in your enrolment being suspended or cancelled.

Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) is compulsory for all overseas students while studying in Australia. OSHC does not cover optometry, dental services or pre-existing conditions (i.e. prior to entry into Australia). Your OSHC insurance covers 85% of the Government scheduled fee for eligible medical expenses; in other words, you are required to pay the remaining 15% for eligible expenses. For non-eligible medical expenses such as optometry, dentistry or treatment of pre-existing conditions, you must pay 100% of the expenses.
The Health Institute Australasia uses Bupa HI as our provider for international student medical insurance – see www.bupa.com.au/health-insurance/cover/oshc. You will be given an option to request that we arrange medical insurance for you on your online enrolment form.
