About Capital College
Capital College is an Australian Government approved Registered Training Organisation (RTO 41593) and is on the Australian Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS 03537J). This means that the College is closely supervised by the Government to ensure the highest standards are maintained and students are provided rewarding, positive learning experiences at one of the leading colleges in Australia for international students.
Capital College was founded in Australia’s national capital of Canberra in 2016 and has been run, shaped, or staffed at different times by a team of education entrepreneurs from Australia, England, Malaysia, Singapore, India, Nepal, China, Japan, Iran, and South Africa. Representing hundreds of years of collective experience, each person has added to the College’s cultural diversity and operational excellence. Students from 40 nations study with us today.
Originally titled Australian Capital College (ACC), we simplified our name in 2020 to Capital College. This coincided with our expansion outside of the Australian capital city to open a northern campus on the Gold Coast. It also reflects a growing focus on international education beyond Australia’s borders, using hybrid delivery models, online technology, and local partnerships.
