Overview

Navitas is a global education provider based in Australia that provides pathways for students into universities and industry through innovative approaches to learning.

Or, more simply, Navitas works collaboratively with universities across the world to establish pathway programmes to support students in their transition into higher education.

Extended Overview

Navitas was founded in 1994, and is now a global education provider, providing foundation studies, diplomas and English-language education to both international and domestic students wanting to study at University.

Navitas is the leading global pathway provider and focuses on closing the gap between the qualifications students have now with the qualifications needed to study at a prestigious university in Australia, the UK, Canada, the USA, New Zealand, or Singapore.

Mission Statement

Navitas aims to change lives through education by providing access and support to pathways into learning, employment opportunities, and lifetime learning.

History

Navitas was introduced in 1994 with an innovative approach to university pathway programmes and has since evolved to collaborate with 39 universities globally.

Its vision was to support students from anywhere in the world to realise their higher education wishes by providing them with supportive pathways to study in Australia.

Within ten years of opening its first pathway college, they were operating six colleges offering university pathway programmes across Australia. In 2000, they took the pathway model to the UK.

The pathway programme has been embraced only too successfully with international students, and many of its colleges have also extended to domestic students. They are now the world leader in managing campuses, offering universities high-quality international opportunities.
