What Our Students Are Saying

Greg Antaw

“Since doing my Certificate IV in Leadership & Management, I have had good feedback from my employers about promotions and pay rises. Most of the management skills I’ve learnt help me see more productive ways of doing tasks. The way your trainers present the skills to be learnt made study a lot easier. I found the RPL process easy to understand and follow instructions. The office staff and support were very helpful. Yes, I would recommend people to your training courses.”

Scott Campbell

“Hi Anne, Hope this is alright to get your training out to my company. I mean it sincerely, that without your help and support to complete my two qualifications, I would not have landed my dream job. Thanks.”

Paul Abbott

“The qualification backed up what I do day to day. I learned more about company policies and environment factors which I’m now more aware of at work. It was a very accommodating course because it allowed me to do it in my own time and at times which suited me. It did not interfere with my work days and therefore would certainly recommend the training to others. The staff were always very supportive at all times. Excellent.”

Malcolm Small

“The support processes were fantastic! Thankyou. Had it not been for the continuous support and encouragement that I received from GTI staff, I may never have completed the training. The Certificate IV in Leadership & Management allowed me to revisit and update my knowledge of ‘how, when and why’ we do things within the organisation. Monitoring a Safe Workplace and Managing Project were helpful in formalising what we do on a daily basis. All aspects of the program were well done and yes, I would recommend it to anyone in, or aspiring to a management position. It helps one understand the reasoning behind all facets of our work.”
