OET Preparation

English for healthcare, ready for registration.

The Occupational English Test (OET) is the English test built for healthcare. Its reading, listening, writing and speaking tasks use real clinical scenarios, so you practise the English you will actually use with patients and colleagues. Because OET is accepted by the Department of Home Affairs for visas and by Australia's health registration boards for professional registration, one test can open both doors.

Who it is for: Nurses, doctors, dentists, pharmacists, physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals seeking registration and migration in Australia. OET covers twelve healthcare professions.

  • Profession-specific reading and listening from real healthcare contexts
  • The writing task, usually a referral or discharge letter
  • Role-played speaking scenarios between practitioner and patient
  • Current OET scoring, now reported as numerical scores
  • Full mock tests marked to OET criteria, with individual feedback

Good to know: You must sit OET at a secure test centre - at-home versions are not accepted for Australian visa purposes. We will help you confirm the score your registration and visa require before you book.

Language, Literacy, Numeracy & Digital Skills (LLND)

Essential skills for work, study and daily life.

A practical, real-world program for adult learners, from beginner to intermediate. LLND builds the four capabilities that open doors in Australia - language, literacy, numeracy and digital confidence - through everyday tasks you will actually meet at work, in study and in the community.

  • Language: vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and speaking and listening for everyday situations.
  • Literacy: reading comprehension, form-filling and basic writing tasks.
  • Numeracy: numbers, times and dates, money, simple calculations and data interpretation.
  • Digital skills: basic computer use, online safety, information search and simple digital content creation.

Format: Flexible delivery through face-to-face classes and online modules, with programs available in partnership with community organisations and employment services.
