At ALG, we want every student to have an equal chance to achieve their learning outcomes, regardless of their course, study mode, or campus location. We make sure that every campus is equally equipped with comprehensive learning resources and opportunities. Wherever you choose to study with us, you can be confident that you’ll have all the necessary resources and support to thrive.

At ALG, we value student feedback. That’s why we have student ambassadors on every campus who is a champion for our ALG and a bridge of communication between staff our students. These ambassadors work with our Marketing and Student Experience team to assist with important events such as Orientation and Graduation, plan student engagement events, and offer support to other students. When you’re a student at ALG, talking to your student ambassador is a fantastic way to stay informed about upcoming events on campus and share your thoughts.

Student Ambassadors support the ALG student community by sharing their experiences as international students in Australia. Current international students can apply for scholarships to join the ALG Student Ambassador Program. As an ambassador, you will participate in activities with fellow students, contribute positively to the community, and work closely with the ALG marketing team to create interesting content for prospective students. This role involves a commitment of up to one year. Visit the Student Ambassador Program page for further information.

Meet Our 2023 Student Ambassadors

In the time I’ve been here at ALG, I’ve learnt so much about childcare, made many friends and really enjoyed the social side of studying and feeling like I’m part of a team. I applied to be a student ambassador because I wanted to share all the great experiences I’m having at ALG with everyone. Helping other students during their time at ALG and being a voice for student feedback was also important to me.

Meet Our 2023 Student Ambassadors

As a student ambassador, my goal was to help students dealing with challenging situations, as I know how hard it can be to be far from home. I was the link between students and the institute, helping students to share their feedback. My advice to new students is to enjoy yourself as much as you can while making your studies a priority. Value this great opportunity of being at ALG for your future!
