This important signing will promote collaboration between the Australian and Korean governments to further strengthen education ties.
It will provide a framework for closer cooperation between Australia’s Department of Education Employment and Workplace relations and Korea’s Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to exchange information on education challenges and identify priorities for practical cooperation.
