Applying for CRICOS approval – ELICOS & Higher Education Providers

If you are a provider of English Language Intensive Courses for Overseas Students (ELICOS) and wish to gain CRICOS approval in NSW, please contact the National ELT Accreditation Scheme (NEAS) at http://www.neasaustralia.com/fst.html

NEAS holds a delegation from VETAB to approve providers of ELICOS that are operating in NSW. Under the delegation, NEAS must ensure that ELICOS providers in NSW comply with the provisions of the VET Act, the ESOS Act and the National Code.

If you are a non self-accrediting Higher Education provider and wish to gain CRICOS approval in NSW, please visit the NSW Department of Education and Training’s Higher Education Directorate’s website at
