Why Study in Melbourne? Melbourne has once again been voted the most liveable city in the world.

Melbourne is the state capital of Victoria, which has a mixture of remarkable 19th century buildings standing erect along tree-lined boulevards and in contrast an array of modern architecture. At the heart of Melbourne s CBD, the strikingly designed Federation Square development houses bars, plaza, street entertainment, restaurants and cultural events all along the beautiful Yarra River. Just across St. Kilda road is Southbank where you will find the Melbourne Arts Precinct. Here, you will experience a tasteful delight of performing arts and a display of Australian, Indigenous and international art in the National Gallery of Victoria and the Arts Centre. The Best City in the World So many international visitors enjoy our famous sites and CBD services such as: - Royal Botanical Gardens - Major museums - City Centre shopping - Etihad Stadium (sports and entertainment) - Rod Laver Stadium (sports and entertainment) - Queen Victoria Market - Docklands and the Melbourne Eye - Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) Hawkes St Restaurants & Cafe s MCIE Training Kitchen TRAM Chetwynd St MCIE CAMPUS 1 min Peel St QUEEN VICTORIA MARKET Elizabeth St Victoria St Melbourne Museum Carlton Gradens Treasury Gardens Shopping & Dining City 7 mins Swanston St King St 7 mins 6 mins MELBOURNE CENTRAL Spencer St Docklands Etihad Statium Shopping & Dining FLAGSTAFF TRAIN STATION Lonsdale St Federation Square Arts Centre Aquarium Iconic Beaches Shopping & Dining International Course Prospectus 2015 2
Student Life in Melbourne As a student at MCIE, near Melbourne s CBD, you will have everything on your doorstep from coffee lounges to shopping to sporting facilities. There are so many places you can go with your friends! However, you need to make sure you set up your essentials so you can travel and enjoy communicating with your new friends. Travel in Melbourne Everyone enjoys FREE CBD travel on all tram services. However, If you travel outside the FREE zone in Melbourne s CBD, you will need to touch on and off the tram/bus/ train using your MYKI travel card. You can buy and top up your myki at over 800 retailers including all 7-Eleven stores. Public Transport In the CBD you are close to: 1. Flinders St Station (opposite Federation Square) and other main connecting train stations such as Southern Cross, Flagstaff, Melbourne Central.

See more at www.melbournebikeshare.com.au/ to find more information on how you can participate in this form of travel Driving In Australia, we drive on the left, however when you are driving in the CBD be careful of Hook Turns. Because the trams run along the same road, drivers have to go in the left lane when turning right (only when you see the hook turn sign at the junction). Mobile Phones There are a range of SIM cards available (pay as you go) that are specific for calling different countries overseas. Popular telecom carriers include Vodafone, Telstra, Optus and Virgin.

Student Stories JEN TI CHENG COURSE: CERTIFICATE IV IN SMALL BUSINESS MANAGEMENT After successfully completing my course with MCIE, it enabled me to achieve immense success in my career. One year ago I couldn t speak English very well and I was struggling to build my career as an International Tennis Coach (before I came to Australia I had been coaching in my home country Taiwan, Japan and USA). At the time of commencement of my course at MCIE, I only had 8 students enrolled in my tennis coaching business. The knowledge gained at MCIE helped me develop my business. Now after 1 year I have 100 students and I am looking for an assistant to expand my business. I must mention that the combination of selection of units in both my qualifications, excellent trainer and support from MCIE have made this possible. For example Address Customer Needs which involved role plays was very interesting and useful. I immediately applied that knowledge in real life in my coaching carrier. I don t just coach and go home, like most other coaches. Instead I get to know the parents as well. Whenever a parent complains about anything I carefully listen, then apologize and find a better solution. How my business grew is not only because of my confidence in the technical side of coaching but my positive attitude and approach towards people. When I have problems I always come to class and discuss with my trainer Kushan and he is very good at giving solutions. Recently I was stressed about me having to work a lot of extra hours. When I explained to my Kushan that the reason was that I had difficulty in negotiating with a businessman who had given me some work in a particular tennis club. The trainer taught me how to focus and negotiate a win-win solution. Immediately my stress level reduced and I ended up finding a better solution. I am also much better in managing my money now and I am thinking not only of growing my business but investing for the future as well. I have already started looking to buy a house and am having long term plans of developing a Tennis Resort / Clinic where training can be provided not only to Australians but also to tennis enthusiasts from overseas. My entire outlook towards business and life has changed positively and I enjoy what I do. One of the things my trainer told me was if you love what you do and if you can do it well you have got a great formula for becoming a successful owner /manager! These only few examples of what I have learnt at MCIE. I highly recommend MCIE because they TRULY care about your well being, help apply the knowledge gained in real life situations and have helped students like me achieve my career goals.
