Founder's Reflections - Why did I start DiHui Education?

Starting point

Advanced Diploma

Where they landed

Master of IT

Student situation

I began my education journey in Australia after completing an Advanced Diploma of Electronics Engineering at TAFE with a full scholarship. After TAFE, I wanted to continue my studies at university, so I started researching Australian universities, relevant courses, visa requirements, and future career pathways.

My original academic background was in electronics engineering, but during this process I discovered a strong interest in multimedia, digital media, and the connection between creative design and information technology.

Challenge

My main challenge was to choose an education pathway that could connect my personal interests, academic background, career opportunities, industry needs, and the policy environment at that time.

I had to make these decisions independently by researching official university websites, government information, professional requirements, and visa-related rules. I wanted to understand how each study choice could support my long-term goals in Australia.

Approach

I first chose to study a Bachelor of Multimedia at Swinburne University, as I was attracted by the university’s reputation in design and creative industries. During this degree, I became increasingly interested in the technical side of digital media, especially how multimedia connects with information technology.

After completing my Bachelor of Multimedia, I decided to continue developing this interest and applied for the Master of Information Technology at the University of Sydney, majoring in Multimedia.

After completing my Master of IT, I went through the relevant IT professional skills assessment process and prepared my own permanent residency application based on my personal circumstances at the time.

Outcome

I successfully completed my Bachelor of Multimedia at Swinburne University and later completed my Master of Information Technology at the University of Sydney, majoring in Multimedia.

After graduation, I completed the relevant IT professional skills assessment process and prepared my own permanent residency application. I was very fortunate to obtain Australian permanent residency. Before receiving my PR, I had already secured a full-time role with a private company that was part of a Fortune 500 group.

This experience became an important foundation for Dihui Education. It taught me how thoughtful education planning can connect a student’s interests, academic background, industry needs, career development, and future opportunities. It also shaped my belief that good education consulting should be personal, practical, and carefully matched to each student’s long-term goals.
