From www.accountantsdaily.com.au: Proposed caps on international student numbers by both major political parties in Australia could worsen the current shortage of qualified accountants, according to statements from CPA Australia, CA ANZ, and IPA.

These organisations argue that reducing the influx of international students will negatively impact the pipeline for training new accountants and could have broader economic ramifications.

As the demand for accountants continues to rise, limiting student enrolments risks damaging Australia’s educational reputation and overall business environment.
