With the increasing demand for internationalisation in our schools, a variety of offshore teaching and consulting positions present excellent opportunities for professional development. These skills directly contribute to the internationalisation of Queensland's education system and are highly valued by the Department of Education.
Education Queensland International (EQI) has a varied role in the recruitment process for these opportunities. It both recommends teachers and managers to international clients for commercial activities and community development projects.
Note: Offshore working/teaching positions are offered on an ad-hoc basis only, subject to client or project requirements.
Teaching
EQI engages with international clients to provide curriculum delivery and related services, and to help recruit suitably qualified and experienced teachers for employment. Teachers are then employed directly by international clients.
Offshore Programs (OP) has successfully assisted our international clients with teacher recruitment since 1995.
Employment opportunities arise throughout the year. However, the majority of positions are for the commencement of the Northern Hemisphere academic year which occurs between August and November and runs through to July the following year. Most teachers are contracted directly by clients.
