The ability to speak English naturally and confidently makes everyday life in Australia so much better. It also makes study and employment more accessible, and increases opportunities for conducting business in the global economy.

The limits of my language are the limits of my world.

Ludwig Wittgenstein, philosopher

We have a range of accredited and non accredited courses aimed specifically at assisting migrants who are looking for employment, no matter what their chosen profession. Courses focus on the Australian workplace with practical lessons on how to tailor your resume to suit individual job applications, telephone interviews and face-to-face interview skills, as well as basic computer skills. We also offer accredited training with English Language support as part of the qualification. So if you are not yet confident with your level of English, our skilled trainers can assist you in improving your proficiency and completing a qualification that will qualify you for work in Australia.

Whatever your current ability, our highly trained instructors can help. Our class sizes are small and we focus our courses on these key areas:

  • Pronunciation
  • Grammar
  • Reading and understanding
  • Writing
  • Listening

NSW Government Smart and Skilled subsidies are available for most of our accredited courses. We offer training tailored to you or your workplace in accordance with the training packages, including English Language support.

Please call 1300 845 888 to find out if you are eligible for NSW Government subsidies.
