ADELAIDE CAMPUS - OPAL

Adelaide Campus - Opal

GEM College of International Business [Opal Campus] in Adelaide, Australia was the first GEM campus to be incorporated.

GEM Opal was established for the specific purpose of capturing a market share of the growth industry of Post Compulsory Education, Vocational Education and Training Education and the teaching of English Language to the level required for University Entrance in Adelaide, Australia and across the Asia Pacific Region.

About GEM Opal

Like all GEM campuses, GEM Opal aims to deliver “pracademic training”. It is practical, and it is academic. It is down to earth, relevant, and will provide you with the academic springboard to enable you to successfully prepare for your future, whether that is at University, in the workplace, or in your own business.

GEM Opal’s registered office is at 52 Prospect Road, Prospect. Our main administration and training centres are located in Central Adelaide.

We have four discrete training locations, offering a wide range of courses:-

  • Suite 229, Level 2, Epworth Building, 33 Pirie Street, Adelaide (which includes EM Academy Australia Aged Care and Disability labs)
  • Level 10 / 80 King William Street, Adelaide (Board and Executive suite)
  • 1/ 35 Beach Road, Christies Beach, 5165
  • 52 Prospect Road, Prospect, 5082

Students are generally allocated one school to attend for a particular course, but by special arrangement some movement may occur between schools. Transport links between the different facilities are easily negotiated.

 

Wide Range of Training Programs

GEM Opal offers a wide range of high demand programs including Business Strategies and Governance, Administration and Recordkeeping, Human Resources, International Trade, Marketing and Project Management

Our educational resources, specialist staff and expert trainers and assessors ensure you are equipped to meet the most current industry requirements and prepare you for the converged economies of the Internet of Things.

We are large enough to provide great services and facilities for a vibrant campus environment, yet small enough to focus on offering learners individual support, care and attention, which are not always found in larger tertiary institutions.

About Adelaide

Adelaide, Australia attractions

South Australia is such a beautiful part of the Australian landscape and its capital city, Adelaide, is a friendly, multicultural garden city, which provides a gateway to some of the most beautiful eco-tourist attractions in Australia. From Wilpena Pound in the Flinders Ranges (Ikara – Meeting Place), to the national and wildlife parks on Kangaroo Island, the McLaren and Barossa Wine Regions and the wild surf of the West Coast – it’s all in reach of Adelaide.

If you like salt water, South Australia has some of the best surf spots in Australia, and a few hours drive from Adelaide to the Upper Spencer Gulf Marine Park could see you swimming with giant cuttlefish in the world’s famous cuttlefish breeding grounds.

Great things about Adelaide

Adelaide enjoys a Mediterranean climate, with hot dry summers and cool mild winters. The city centre is surrounded on all sides by 7 square kilometres of parklands. With a population of 1.2 million people it is safe, relaxed, affordable and easy to get around.

GEM College acknowledges the Kaurna people as the custodians of the Adelaide region and that their cultural and heritage beliefs are still as important to the living Kaurna people today. We also pay respects to the cultural authority of indigenous people visiting/attending from other areas of South Australia and other places in the continent and its islands.

    Adelaide is the perfect place to live and explore on a student budget. It is one of the most affordable capital cities in terms of living costs, with rent around 49% lower than Sydney.

    GEM College provides Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector training. Beyond GEM you can attend some of Australia’s top educational institutions in Adelaide. Some of these have breathtakingly beautiful colonial-era sandstone architecture.
  1. Transport in Adelaide is convenient and inexpensive
    GEM College Opal Campus’ city campuses are a few steps from bus and tram stops. Our inner-city trams weave quietly through the CBD adding further to its charm. Many city transport services are free (including buses), so you can move about Adelaide very affordably.Adelaide is also bicycle-friendly. Free bicycles are available to use around the CBD, promoting a healthier, green and active lifestyle, and adding convenience if you’re running late to class!

    There’s always a festival in Adelaide. Major festivals include WOMADelaide, Adelaide Festival, FEAST Festival, Adelaide Fringe, OzAsia, Oktoberfest and IndoFest– to name a few!

    While Adelaide has all the benefits of a thriving city it is refreshingly laid-back, quiet and relaxed. It is a fantastic location for dedicating time to study, increasing your productivity and getting the most from your time.

    There are opportunities to participate in internships and find part-time employment whilst studying in Adelaide. Our thriving industries include food and wine, bioscience, health, agriculture, information and communications technology, defence, tourism and the arts.

The Tandanya Aboriginal Art Centre is a vibrant hub of indigenous life, past and present. The State Library of South Australia, the verdant Adelaide Botanic Gardens, the South Australian Museum, the Art Gallery of South Australia, the Adelaide Festival Centre and the Adelaide Zoo – all are great venues capturing elements of our diversity.

    Adelaide’s food and bar scene is alive and well – the adventurous Foodie will sniff out quirky food boutiques and rooftop bars.

  1. Living in Adelaide – there’s nothing like it!
    Adelaide is a microcosm of the world. You can join a Spirit of the Coorong‘s Ngarrindjeri Kurangk Culture Experience Tour and experience our Indigenous heritage, or discover the earlier settler’s heritage transposed by the German, Cornish and Scottish free settlers in Hahndorf, Burra and Angaston and Strathalbyn (Valley of the Scots). These pioneers left overcrowded industrial cities and religious persecution to enjoy freedom and create a new, prosperous society. They were successful – and in the 21st Century, we benefit from that with our beautiful parklands, botanic gardens, colourful and diverse communities, beautiful rural landscapes, historic sandstone cityscapes, thriving industry and prosperous businesses. We experience low unemployment rates and a healthy economy. Celebrate our diversity, opportunities, education and culture with us!
