EMPLOYMENT & JOB PLACEMENT

Read This First

  • Do you find jobs for students?

    No. We do not offer job placement, recruitment, referrals, or guaranteed employment.

  • Will you help me get a job after I finish the course?

    We provide an employment module that teaches you how to find and apply for jobs independently. We do not apply for jobs on your behalf or contact employers for you.

  • Does purchasing the certificate include job assistance?

    No. The certificate confirms course completion only. It does not include job placement or personalised employment support.

  • Can you recommend specific schools or employers?

    No. Graduates are expected to research employers and apply independently using the tools provided in the course.

  • Is employment guaranteed after completing the course?

    No. As with any qualification, employment depends on the candidate, the job market, and the effort put into applying.

  • Who is responsible for finding a job?

    You are. This course provides knowledge and tools — not employment services.

  • Who should NOT take this course?

    If you are looking for guaranteed placement or someone to find a job for you, this course is not suitable.

LOOKING FOR A JOB?

Factors to consider...

  • Nationality

    You´ll find that your nationality (passport) will influence your job opportunities as well as the issuance of work visas and permits. Many employers will only hire native English speakers from the US, UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. There are of course exceptions and there are countries that´ll provide the relevant work visa or permit to non-native English speakers.

  • Qualifications

    In many cases, you´ll find that employers will want you to have a Bachelor´s degree and a TEFL certificate. Again, there are exceptions and you´ll find teachers working abroad without a degree.

  • Visa Stipulations

    Employers are often restricted in their hiring practices by immigration laws and requirements. Some countries will only issue legal work visas and permits to native English speakers from the US, UK, Ireland, Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa - so keep this in mind!

  • Other Considerations

    Some employers will need you to have a health or criminal check or both. Additionally, some employers may require previous teaching experience or for you to be in a particular age bracket.
