What is the Adult Migrant English Program?

The Adult Migrant English Program provides unlimited hours of free English language lessons to eligible migrants and humanitarian entrants. If you have been granted a permanent visa or eligible temporary visa and speak little or no English, you may be eligible for AMEP. Some migrant youths aged between 15 and 17 years of age may also be eligible.  Find out if you’re eligible for FREE English lessons with the Adult Migrant English Program.

What will I learn?

In your AMEP classes you will be learning English language skills that will help you settle successfully in Australia with people with similar backgrounds, experiences and goals. You will learn about Australian values, cultures and laws, and a range of topics that will make it easier for you to work, study and enjoy life in Australia.  Some of these topics include;

  • life skills, culture, loss of family or friends
  • health and safety
  • managing money and banking
  • public transport and driving
  • the child care and education system
  • the medical system and services
  • the law and legal systems

The Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP) is funded by the Australian Government Department of Home Affairs.
