"The Certificate in Global Workplace Practice (CGWP) helped me a lot in getting my
current job as an Account Officer. I was searching for the right path for me to explore and understand employment practice from resume preparation, right up to interview. The Certificate in Global Workplace Practice had everything I was searching for—with the addition of actual work experience.

"Getting employment can be very difficult for students with no industrial and local experience. The CGWP helps in gaining valuable industrial experience in the market leading businesses and companies. This is extremely important experience which potential employers are looking for, which ultimately increases our employability in Australia.



"I came to UOW because of its excellence in education, diversity of courses, social life and multicultural environment. The excellent library, the social life, the chance to network with people from all over the world; all these things have given me memories to last a lifetime."

"When I was in Nepal, friends gave me different suggestions about selecting a university. I finally selected UOW, because I knew that it has a very good faculty and teaching in the field of accounting. During my two years of study, UOW has proven this reputation.

"When I finished my study, UOW provided me with another opportunity—to learn about Australian organisations. Though I had theoretical knowledge, practical knowledge is quite important.

"Through the Certificate in Global Workplace Practice, I did a work a placement of four weeks with a local accounting firm. They always encouraged me to learn something new and useful in a practical sense: BAS preparation, bank reconciliation, and accounts receivable and payable. Moreover, I learned about the working environment of a real Australian organisation.

"My four weeks on placement felt like four days because of the encouraging behaviour and putting all my knowledge to work into practical field!"

"Just as I was finishing my Masters degree, UOW introduced the Certificate in Global Workplace Practice. I was actually looking for work experience in the field of accounting—but how and where was the big question!

"The programme was unique in how the University provided students with an opportunity to work in accounting firms. I was able to apply my knowledge and skills and learn practical methodologies in the corporate environment. As far as I’m concerned, GWP will definitely help find work in my field.

"I see the GWP as an important step towards narrowing down your career path and interests. Getting a good start as an international student in initially a hard thing, but my dreams have come true with the help of UOW.

"I wanted to be a part of UOW because it’s among the best in Australia, and has good infrastructure and experienced, knowledgeable staff. The University provides great help to its students, not only in their studies, but in things like recreation facilities to keep active, accommodation, support services, and career advice. All these things give students confidence, and the chance to grow in the future."
