Why Gold Coast College?
Welcome to Gold Coast College,
a college of choice for students from
all over the world.
Why choose Gold Coast College as a place to study? Because of
our student-friendly environment. We listen carefully in order to meet
our student's needs and encourage students to become part of the
GCC family. We believe that it is important to get to know each student
personally and offer them support to help them achieve their goals.
We prepare students for life outside the classroom. Our academic
programs are specifically designed to focus on helping students to
become independent learners. Our teachers help students to
develop the necessary tools to communicate independently in the
real world, both confidently and competently. Many students have
told us that the decision to come and study at GCC was one of the
best decisions they have ever made!
"Come and find out why
GCC is the smarter way to learn English"

Pathway IN ENGLISH
t he GCC Academic System emphasises enhancing both accuracy and fluency to motivate
English study and boost student's confidence in using English. Qualified and experienced
teachers use innovative teaching methods, overseen by the Director of Studies.
The students are able to engage in 1:1 consultations with their teacher to ensure they are on
the right track and students benefit greatly from the feedback and comments they receive.
When students progress to a higher level of English learning, the whole cycle will repeat itself
until students reach their goal.

Diploma of Business is our ‘Entrepreneur Bootcamp’: all the
teachers and tutors have worked in their own businesses, so they
have real practical knowledge of how businesses operate. They
can help you get your own business started or improve
your results in your current job. The eight units in the Diploma
are all practical and realistic choices that relate to day to day work
in the real world, and the text book and handouts are ‘cutting
edge’ contemporary business practice. The teaching faculty is
at the college 5 days a week and they will help you relate your
study to the world in which you are working right now. Most units
have two written assessment tasks and there are two ‘Observations’
in the course. There is no exam.
Advanced Diploma of Business is our ‘Entrepreneur Master
Class’: The teachers have extensive business experience, or
postgraduate university qualifications, or both. All students in the
class must have substantial business experience or a Diploma
of Business or higher. Discussions in the class focus on the kinds
of problems, opportunities and changes that business leaders
face in the real world. The subjects we have chosen present

contemporary business problems. Drive your existing business
practices to new heights. There is no exam. Student answers to
written tasks need to be detailed and sophisticated.
