IH Sydney Training Services, a leader in English Language programmes, Teacher Training, Vocational Education and Training (VET), and Higher Education, is now part of IALC. With 7 locations across Australia, IH Sydney offers students a global education experience that will last a lifetime. Welcome aboard!
IH Sydney Training Services has seven campuses located in some of Australia's most dynamic, cosmopolitan locations, which truly differentiates International House.
The two Sydney campuses are situated in the heart of the Harbour city, a short tram ride from the iconic Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Close to shopping, cafes and a buzzing entertainment precinct, IH Sydney is perfectly situated for the international student looking for some excitement in their day.
At the other end of the spectrum, the IH Byron Bay campus is an easy walk to some of Australia’s most stunning beaches and a short drive to a lush coastal hinterland. The region features Australia’s most pristine and alternative lifestyle where you can study ‘English and Yoga’, right on the beach!
The IH Melbourne campus reflects the city’s sophisticated European vibe, located downtown and adjacent to the hippest bars, cafes, and nightlife. Students live and work nearby, with this vibrant community connected by a world-class tram network.
Where capital city ‘meets the outback’, the IH Darwin campus has the best of both worlds. An integral member of the education and business community, IH Darwin reflects its Tropic of Capricorn position, close to natural wildlife, national parks and the Timor Sea.
Known as the ‘City of Churches’ and surrounded by traditional sandstone architecture, the IH Adelaide campus is adjacent to Australia’s top Universities, with retail, employment opportunities and crystal-clear beaches nearby.
The Gold Coast's sandy beaches, waterways, and vibrant nightlife have made it a top destination for international students who want to pursue their education goals with a fulfilling lifestyle. IH Gold Coast campus is situated in The Australia Fair Shopping Centre, making it easily accessible for transportation, amenities, shopping, accommodation, and employment opportunities.
A short 15-minute train ride to the Sydney city-centre, IH Bondi is also in a world-class shopping and business precinct, and a short bus-ride to the world-renowned Bond Beach!

We were fortunate to speak with Timothy L Eckenfels, CEO and Mark Raven, GM of IH Sydney Training Services:
How does your school stand out from others?
Timothy L Eckenfels: “With 7 locations throughout Australia, we offer the same courses, prices and start dates at all seven locations. This allows students to transfer from one campus to another, all for the same price and dedication to high quality, so they can enjoy a new experience in a variety of Australian towns and cities.
Every step of the student and agent journey is individualized with high service levels and academic standards to ensure the best possible experience when working with IH Sydney Training Services. We are one of the only companies, globally, who process enquiries and applications in 4 different countries, 24/7, 365 days a year, to ensure immediate response to all applications and enrolments. ”
What are the most popular courses at your school?
Mark Raven: “With over 5,000 students studying with us each year, it’s almost impossible to nominate our most popular courses. Our Cambridge English courses underpin our quality English Language Teaching curriculum, whilst our vocational qualifications are all Commonwealth government endorsed.
We have recently become a High Education provider, offering degree courses to business and marketing students. Due to our scope, many of our students take more than one course of study with us!”
What do your students love most about your school?
MR: “Study and travel are two huge drivers of personal growth, with the IH Sydney Training Services team and syllabus reflecting this dynamic outlook. The combination of our exciting extra-curricular activities, study pathways and compelling campus destinations, are impossible to match in Australia. Our students have lots of fun with the #LivetheIHdream central to our learning culture“
