The Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP) is a settlement program funded by the Australian Government Department of Education and Training to eligible migrants and humanitarian entrants with up to 510 hours of free* English language course.
The AMEP helps new migrants learn basic English skills that will assist them to successfully and confidently participate socially and economically in Australian society. The AMEP is available to migrants from the family, skilled and humanitarian visa streams and provides up to 510 hours of English language tuition within the first five years of visa commencement or arrival in Australia.
