> About ISANA
ISANA began as the Overseas Student Advisers’ Network (OSAN) in 1989. It was formed as a special interest group of the Australian and New Zealand Student Services Association (ANZSSA), as a network of people in new roles of delivering support services to international students. OSAN, later renamed the International Student Advisers’ Network of Australia, conducted conferences, and addressed issues of international student experiences in Australia. It very rapidly expanded to include New Zealand members and, in 2002, a New Zealand branch was formed. It has also expanded well beyond being of interest just to student service personnel to encompass all aspects and professions involved with international education. Because of the expansion of membership in 1999 ISANA adopted the name, ISANA: International Education Association Inc.
