"I like the fact that the classes are small and that the instructions are friendly. Staffs and trainers are always willing to help and are very flexible in meeting students. The environment here is very sociable and it's a great place for students. There is a commercial kitchen, training rooms, cafe, and bar on-site for me and other students to practice.

Thank you Barrington College and all of the staff for making my career. I would highly recommend Barrington College to everyone"

“I thoroughly enjoyed my study experience with Barrington College - they have great trainers with years of industry experience and it is such a friendly campus. I completed my industry placement at the luxurious Palazzo Versace Gold Coast, which was a great experience and has helped to advance my career as a chef. My next career step is with The Star Sydney.

I highly recommend Barrington College and the Gold Coast to international students who are seeking a uniquely Australian study and lifestyle experience.”

Certificate III in Hospitality and Diploma of Hospitality student

"I commenced my studies with Barrington College in July 2014. My Certificate III in Hospitality fast-tracked me 6-12 months ahead of my co-workers and qualified me for a higher pay rate. I couldn't have been happier with the head start Barrington College Australia has provided me.

Fast-forward two years, now under the guidance of Katrina Thompson I'm studying a Diploma of Hospitality. I own two stalls in the world-famous night markets in QLD. One at Miami Marketta and another at Night Quarter. The training and industry have changed my life and I'm only getting started!"

 "Studying at Barrington College has been rather great. From the first day of induction to the interaction in the classes, right until graduation. The topics would tend to get a bid side-tracked but you are able to share your experiences with the rest of your peers during the on-site training sessions. 

I appreciate all the staff at Barrington College Australia as they always go the extra mile to ensure that all the students are happy throughout the course.
