We work with a number of Registered Training Organisations throughout Australia, providing information to Business Owners, Trainees and Prospective enrollees to help with the decision as to which organisation to engage.
Utilising internet and VOIP technologies, email and fax, we provide information to employers, conduct over the phone interviews with new and existing staff, and seek enrolments into various certificate level training in the form of workplace traineeships and fee for service training options. In the case of workplace traineeship arrangements, we are completely conversant with all Government legislation and guidelines covering workplace traineeship arrangements, and can ensure that employers and trainees are aware not only of the benefits but also of their obligations when entering Training Contracts.
We can target a particular training program on behalf of training organisations, in the most suitable areas for course delivery, to achieve viable programs for business. The majority of our clients conduct training through Distance Education mode, especially in regional and remote areas, where marketing of this type is sometimes scarce and training options limited. We are partnering with more and more training organisations who are developing online learning, providing access to quality training to anyone, anywhere and at any time.
This service is provided to employers and prospective trainees without cost or obligation. Our fees are paid by the Training Organisation with whom a trainee enrols.
For Registered Training Organisations - we would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your needs further with you . We also offer, through our Online Resources Consultancy, the opportunity for training organisations to offer their courses online, saving time and money. Students are given a log-in to access training resources and complete assignments at times to suit them - alleviating the cost, time and delays in delivery using the paper-based model. Call us now to discuss your requirements and receive an obligation-free quote. We think you might be pleasantly surprised!
