AUSTRALIA: This week, the Education Centre of Australia (ECA) marked a significant milestone: 19 years of shaping the future of international education. Staff, alumni, and partners gathered in Sydney to celebrate the journey of an organisation that has evolved from a single vision into a global network spanning over 13 countries.
The celebration was not just about longevity—it was a tribute to the adaptability, respect, and determination that have defined ECA’s mission. Over the years, ECA has empowered thousands of students, forged powerful academic and industry partnerships, and worked to make global education more accessible and inclusive.

The anniversary event in Sydney was filled with reflection and heartfelt connection. Attendees shared memories, honoured long-standing contributors, and looked back at a timeline marked by challenges and triumphs. Among those challenges, none loomed larger than the COVID-19 pandemic—a crisis that shook the international education sector to its core.
“ECA not only weathered that storm,” said a spokesperson, “we came out of it stronger, more agile, and more deeply committed to our purpose than ever before.”
While the Sydney celebration was vibrant and lively, thoughts turned to ECA’s teams worldwide—from India and the Philippines to the UK and beyond. “We wish we could have had everyone physically with us,” the team shared in a statement, “but the spirit of this milestone belongs to all of you.”
Photos and highlights from the event captured moments of joy and recognition, serving as a reminder of the collective effort that fuels ECA’s ongoing journey. As the organisation looks to its 20th anniversary and beyond, its focus remains unchanged: driving educational opportunity, fostering cross-border collaboration, and uplifting communities through learning.
“Here’s to the road ahead,” said one team member, “driven by respect, agility, and a shared belief in the transformative power of education.”
