The Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Legislative Framework has been designed to establish and maintain national standards for the provision of education and training services to international students. The legislation aims to protect international students and guarantee quality education. It also enables the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) to take action against providers who are found in breach of their obligations.

The Legislative Framework relates only to students who are enrolled in an onshore program and remain in Australia on a Student Visa. This Legislation does not apply to students undertaking transnational programs or remaining in Australia on a temporary visa other than a Student Visa.
