The ITC Group is an innovative and successful organisation that delivers educational, project management and international development solutions that build the capacity of individuals, organisations and communities in Australia, the Asia-Pacific and the Middle East.

Our experience in cross-cultural interactions enables us to serve a diverse range of stakeholders, such as domestic and international students, organisations requiring feasibility studies in the various areas of education, organisations seeking curriculum development, quality assurance supervision and teacher training, and regions seeking assistance in the governance sector.

The University of Wollongong in Dubai (UOWD) is one of the ITC Group’s key activities. Established in 1993, UOWD was the first western university to be licensed by the United Arab Emirates’ Ministry of Higher Education. Located in Knowledge Village, an educational precinct a short distance from the heart of the city, UOWD is an English-speaking facility with around 2,500 students from more than 80 nationalities.

With over 500 employees around the world, the ITC Group is wholly-owned by the University of Wollongong, but operates as an autonomous entity with a Board of Directors drawn from the University and private industry. This connection facilitates the integration of UOW’s internationally-acclaimed academic and research excellence with the ITC Group’s commercial experience in education, training and practical project management. The ITC Group also holds international accreditation as a Quality Management Company (ISO 9001:2000).

The ITC Group operates the recruiting and marketing arm of UOW as well as Wollongong College Australia (WCA), which delivers English language and University pathway programs. Since 2006 ITC Group has been a Higher Education Provider, allowing the company to expand its tertiary education business and access FEE-HELP for Australian students at WCA.

New developments at ITC Group have seen the company venture into aviation and film. ITC has bought a controlling share in the International Film School Sydney (IFSS) and has been contracted to market and recruit for a consortium of flight training schools in Australia, which offer international aviation qualifications.

ITC Group is headquartered on UOW’s Wollongong campus, 80km south of Sydney, but has a presence at locations throughout Australia and the world.
