Student Reviews

Ben lim

Gaining improve knowledge in the construction project management and the course is easy to understand.

Mr Brian Joseph Keenan

Very good and informative and quick with marking my assignments and issuing my certificate.

Sarah D

Being a support worker I needed add a child care cert in my portfolio. I have done the course and that was really a good course.

Sam Ryder

The first aid course was very informative with well organised curriculum. I already have some bit and pieces knowledge of first aid, this course helped me a lot.
