Q. Is ICQA a fully regulated course provider for international students in Australia?

A. Yes. ICQA operates under the Australian educational framework and maintains full compliance with the ESOS Act and the National Code of Practice. We are a CRICOS-registered provider, ensuring adherence to the stringent standards for course quality, student support, and financial protection set by the Australian Government. Our CRICOS Provider Code is 01351B. 

Q. What specific IELTS score do I need for my Australian Student Visa (Subclass 500) application or university entry?

A. The minimum score required depends on your ultimate goal. For many direct university entries and the student visa (Subclass 500), an Overall Band Score of 6.0 (with no band less than 5.5) is the standard minimum, but this can vary. At ICQA, our specialised programs are designed to push you beyond this minimum, helping you achieve the competitive scores (e.g., 7.0 for certain healthcare registrations) needed for both visa success and career placement.

Q. How does ICQA’s IELTS course provide a pathway to jobs through Workready Asia?

A. Our program is strategically designed for career outcomes. ICQA delivers the specialised IELTS and English training and certification. The career guidance component, including mentoring, cultural workshops, and job market insights, is provided through a separate, established arrangement with Workready Asia. This arrangement provides students with access to external employment support services upon course completion to enhance their job-seeking readiness.

Q. What is the maximum timeframe for me to achieve my target IELTS score for university or visa purposes?

A. The required duration for training depends entirely on your current proficiency and target score. At ICQA, our goal is to help you progress efficiently through small, focused class sizes. Upon enrolment, we conduct a detailed pre-assessment to provide a realistic expected study duration and personalised learning plan. 

Q. If I use an agent, are the course fees and refund conditions the same? 

A. Yes. Your total course fees, payment terms, and the non-refundable deposit (if applicable) are outlined clearly in your formal written agreement directly with ICQA, regardless of the channel you use to apply. ICQA has a formal written agreement with every education agent, ensuring they comply with the National Code and adhere to ethical recruitment practices.

Q. Fees and instalments:

A. We understand the financial challenges you may face. That’s why we offer a unique payment scheme, allowing you to pay off your full tuition fees over monthly instalments. 

Q. What is the relationship between ICQA, EDUK8U, and Workready Asia?

A. ICQA is the dedicated CRICOS English Language College operating under the umbrella of EDUK8U. This means ICQA maintains the same high educational standards and professional compliance as the parent brand.

Crucially, Workready Asia is our exclusive career and recruitment partner. The relationship is designed as a seamless pathway:

  • ICQA provides your Australian-compliant English language training (IELTS prep).

  • Workready Asia (a licensed labour hire company) provides registered students with access to career mentoring, job search resources, and connections to identified roles in Australia, particularly in Queensland and Victoria, upon successful course completion.

This partnership ensures your English education is strategically linked to genuine employment readiness in Australia.
