Marsil, Certificate IV in ESL (Professional) - Engineers

Marsil worked as an Electrical Power Engineer in Egypt for six years before coming to Australia. Upon her arrival, she was told by all of her friends (many of them engineers themselves) that she would never find work in Australia as an engineer.

After retraining, she worked as an aged carer for her first 18 months in Melbourne, although never gave up the dream of being able to work in her field as an electrical engineer. It wasn't until she joined Holmesglen's ESL course that everything fell into place.

Marsil found that she improved her English as well as gaining practical placement within the Australian engineering industry. Marsil was so successful on her placement that she was offered a job on completion of her six week work experience placement and is delighted now to be a part of VEMTEC.

Marsil says that although it was challenging to get to know all of the standards and terminology to be able to do her work, she believes this course changed her life here in Australia as it gave her such an amazing opportunity.

Marsil is currently working as an Electrical Engineer (Design Engineer), and is on her way to top level management.
