Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to propose an adapted Porter Diamond Model (PDM) that can be used by Transnational Education (TNE) countries and institutions as an analytical framework for the strategic evaluation of TNE host countries in terms of attractiveness for exporting higher education.
Design/methodology/approach: The study uses a literature review to adapt the PDM in the context of TNE host countries. A pilot study of adapted PDM is conducted for China and Malaysia. Available country data is collected via desk-study.
Findings: The pilot application of the adapted PDM revealed no major issues or failings. Only some minor difficulties in the identification of appropriate data which can be resolved with the use of alternative metrics. The results from the analysis of the two countries, indicate that China and Malaysia are both suitable TNE host countries for expanding existing and developing new activities. This also indicates the proposed use of the adapted PDM is suitable to effectively evaluate TNE host countries.
Practical implications: This adapted model can be used by TNE exporting institutions and countries to access the suitability of prospective TNE host countries for education export. Also, it can be used to evaluate the future risks for existing TNE activities. TNE host countries can use the model to strengthen their attractiveness for education import or to plan of becoming education hubs.
Originality/value: Considering the scale and the expected growth of TNE, as well as the lack of strategic analysis tools for TNE; the proposed model provides a valuable practical tool to aid strategic planning at institutional and country level.
