Learn Support Services

The International College of Auckland (ICA) maintains engagement with its students at two levels: academic and non-academic. At the academic level, students are primarily involved and engaged with program delivery, learning, and assessments. All other engagements are at the non-academic level, with settlement support being a key function of ICA’s non-academic engagement with students.

ICA’s Academic Support Services department has a broad function. Key elements of ICA Student Services include providing the first point of contact for both prospective and existing students.

ICA Student Support Services include the following:

  • Administration Support
  • Ongoing Student Support during the Course
