About ICEF Academy
Our first course, the ICEF Agent Training Course (IATC), was launched in 2010 with the goal of supporting education counsellors in learning more about the business of international student recruitment, and collectively raising standards across the sector. Since then we’ve added to our training portfolio in line with market evolution – in 2022 ICEF acquired PIER, Australia’s biggest agent training platform. With the acquisition of PIER came the Education Agent Training Course (EATC), leading to the industry-recognised QEAC certification for education agents recruiting students to Australia.
Our training course portfolio continues to grow with the industry, and we are proud to have the support of some of the sector’s most respected organisations.
We firmly believe in the transformational power of international education. ICEF Academy provides you with the tools to become an expert in the field, develop your counselling skills, and deliver the benefits of studying abroad to the wider world. To-date, over 16,000 education counsellors around the world have taken an ICEF exam, and received an ICEF Course Graduate qualification
