Why train with us?
For over 25 years, we’ve been helping organisations across Australia work better with migrants and refugees through our Cultural Competence and Health Literacy training.
Our training is evidence-based, practical, affordable and engaging.
We’re Australian pioneers in Health Literacy, having delivered long & short courses across Australia since 2013
We’ve developed and delivered Cultural Competence training specifically for the disability sector and NDIS-providers, in Melbourne and regional Victoria. to help you and your staff work better with these complex dynamics.
Organisations we’ve trained
As part of our Employee Induction Program, CEH conducts in-house sessions with new employees. Our municipality is a large, culturally diverse community, so training focuses on equipping staff with skills for working with interpreters and helping them to gain an understanding of the complexities of issues of working with CALD communities.

Senior Advisor, Access and Engagement
I want to let CEH know how pleased we were with the quality of the training recently delivered to service providers in Shepparton. I have heard fantastic feedback from a number of participants. One of the multicultural specific staff in our team attended the training and she was very impressed with the training – and although she has worked in a multicultural specific role for many years, she came away with some helpful tips and new ideas.
