Parents
Welcome to EBC
Dear Sir or Madam,
We are looking forward to providing your son or daughter with the teacher training, job assistance, travel support and accommodation that he or she will need in order to become a successful English teacher and find a teaching job after graduation.
EBC provides all the services and tools necessary to enable all of our students to get the most out of their study abroad experience with EBC. Having your son or daughter live abroad presents a new and exciting challenge to both you and your child regardless of the length of stay or destination. For this reason I would like to take this opportunity to explain how EBC will be with there to assist your son or daughter every step of the way.
EBC has been offering its TEFL TESOL training programme since 2002 and has graduated over 2,500 satisfied teachers. We've also successfully found work for all of our course graduates that have wanted to stay on and find work.
As with all responsible organisations, the comfort and safety of our students is our number one priority. Prior to arrival we help by providing a list of official sites containing up-to-date news about our campus country locations and other general and global news regarding travel. Upon arrival we make sure that each new intake of students is briefed about the campus location they are studying in.
In addition to making student safety a priority we also provide the following services to help your son or daughter arrange his/her trip.
- A flight finder that lists reliable and reputable flight agencies to enable you to get the best flight deals;
- Recommended accommodation that will give your son or daughter a safe, clean and comfortable place to stay during the course. EBC will also be there to give advice about accommodation if your son or daughter decides to stay on and work in the campus location city;
- A travel and health insurance finder that recommends different insurance options and provides a list of of reputable insurance agents that provide coverage abroad.
In order to ensure safe arrival at your son or daughter's chosen campus location, we send out arrival instructions 2 weeks prior to the course start date so that your son or daughter can familiarise him/herself with our campus address. We send a map, instructions of how to get to the training centre and a list of 24/7 contact phone numbers in case of emergencies.
The quality of the EBC course and our course trainers is very high. Our course is accredited, which means that all aspects of our course: our trainers, course material, support services, installations and even the content of what we say on our web has been checked by our accreditors. Our accreditors are Ascentis (OCNW). Ascentis (OCNW) is a National Awarding Body, approved by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (QCA) and is licensed by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA). The QCA and QAA are both British Government organisations. The QCA oversees the National Awarding Bodies. The QAA ensures that higher education qualifications are of a sound standard.
Our accredited status means that the certification that your son or daughter will receive is one of the highest currently available. It is one of an elite few certificates that is accepted by the British Council, a British Government organisation with schools in 109 countries around the world. You don't have to be British to work for them.
Our fee processing is handled using PayPal, one of the most secure, regulated and identify theft-proof payment systems available. In order to qualify for PayPal, EBC has had to provide legal, documentary proof of corporate and personal identity.
EBC is a professional training organisation run by teachers with the sole aim of providing a safe and high-quality environment in which your son or daughter can study.
EBC welcomes your questions and has a transparent, open-door policy for all parent enquiries so if you also want to contact us to ask questions you are more than welcome to do so.
Sincerely,
Jim Ross,
TEFL Coordinator,
