English Language Preparation

Every Martin College centre offers English language programs to ensure that our international students can quickly meet the entry requirements of their chosen course.

English language support (for international students)

Students wishing to undertake a Martin College program must meet the relevant English language entry requirements of the course. Our English Language academic preparation programs are designed to help students who require additional training to meet these requirements, in the shortest time possible.

Academic preparation programs

Students who already have a good intermediate level of English – for example, IELTS 5.0 or equivalent for entry to Certificate IV, and IELTS 5.5 or equivalent for entry to Diploma/Advanced Diploma courses – may undertake a business course entry test and proceed immediately to the relevant academic course of their choice. Students who do not have a sufficient level of language may enrol in one of our English language academic preparation programs. Martin College preparation courses are delivered by Embassy CES English language training centres and are offered at all our locations.

CRICOS Provider Codes: 01755D (Qld), 01682E (NSW).

Assessing individual needs

If you need additional English language training in order to meet the Martin College entry requirements, we will carefully assess your individual level before you enrol, and recommend the right length of language course for you. You will be guided through your development of English so that you achieve the required level as quickly as possible.

The English for Academic Purposes Program (EAPP)

The English for Academic Purposes Program (EAPP) is recommended for students who do not yet have the required level of English to enter Martin College. This course is delivered in 10, 20 and 30 week terms and there are start dates every 5 weeks. To enter at Stage 1, students need a minimum IELTS level of 4.5. Students without a current IELTS score may seek entry to the course by taking the EAPP Entrance Test.

The Certificate of Business English

This course is also an excellent choice for students wishing to improve their level of English in preparation for Martin College. Entry is at Pre-Intermediate (Level 3) or above, with start dates every Monday. General English language study can also be undertaken at Embassy CES to reach the required entry level.
