Citizenship Classes

SMRC’s Citizenship Program helps migrants and refugees prepare for the Australian Citizenship Test by providing essential knowledge about Australia’s government, laws, and society.

Our 12-week Citizenship Program runs every term, guiding participants through key topics covered in the citizenship test, including:

• Australia and its people
• Australia’s democratic beliefs, rights, and liberties
• Government and the law in Australia
• Australian values

Participants will practice test questions and revise key topics in class to build confidence before sitting for their citizenship test.
