The English for Migrants programme enables migrants to have access to English language courses, supporting their integration into New Zealand society and the labour market.
The Department of Labour (Immigration New Zealand) requires some migrants to pre-purchase English language tuition as part of their residence requirement.
We administer this funding on behalf of the Department of Labour.
Migrants who have pre-purchased tuition as part of their residency can only access their entitlements through approved providers. These include universities, ITPs, PTEs, schools and OTEPs.
The dollar value of English language tuition provided depends on the migrant's level of English. Visit the Immigration New Zealand website for details of English Language requirements.
Information is available for providers and learners.
