About OEA

TURNING AMBITION INTO RESULTS

Our vision is to deliver world-class, affordable online courses that create meaningful, lasting impact in the lives of our students.

We believe education is the most powerful tool to transform individuals, families, communities – and even entire industries. Whether you’re upskilling, reskilling, or stepping into a new field, education opens doors to new opportunities. That’s why we’ve built flexible, accessible online learning that meets today’s market demands.

If you’re passionate about learning and creating better outcomes for your future, you’ve come to the right place.

MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER

At OEA, I’m proud of what we’ve built – and even more excited about where we’re going. Together with our wider group of education-focused companies, we’ve trained and certified over 2,500 business owners, qualified more than 2,000 students, and registered nearly 10,000 participants. We’ve partnered with over 1,200 businesses, receive more than 300 course enquiries each week, and built a global community of more than 400,000 subscribers. Through our podcast, we’ve also interviewed some of the world’s most successful multi-million-dollar entrepreneurs.

My passion for training and online learning runs deep, because I believe education creates success, happiness and prosperity – not just for individuals, but for society as a whole. I am personally committed to helping people grow both professionally and personally through flexible, self-paced online education. And we’re just getting started.

CEO, Founder, Podcast Host, Business Coach.

That means when you study with us, your qualification carries real weight — respected by employers, recognised by TAFE, universities, and government departments, and trusted across industries.
Our focus is on business and entrepreneurship: practical, future-focused programs designed to help you grow your career, start your business, or take your existing venture to the next level.

You’re not just earning a qualification — you’re gaining the skills, knowledge, and confidence to succeed.
