Education for adults

The Northern Territory Electoral Commission offers education programs, customised presentations and information sessions, as well as resources to government agencies, businesses, organisations and community groups.

English as a second language (ESL)

We have specific education programs for adults who do not have English as a first language. These programs use ESL teaching techniques, including simple visuals, hands-on activities and a mock election with a vote counting exercise to help develop understanding about:

  • democracy
  • three levels of government
  • who can vote
  • compulsory voting
  • secret ballot
  • democratic elections
  • how to vote
  • how votes are counted.
