KIQ Student Information Sessions are support-focused initiatives by Kenyans in Queensland (KIQ), designed to assist students as they navigate education, settlement, and academic life in Queensland.
These sessions provide practical information, guidance, and peer support for Kenyan students at different stages of their education journey, from new arrivals to continuing students.
