Now it's nearly time to open the doors!

It'll be great to see thousands of students coming through and all the conversations that happen across the day.

If you're part of the business community, and want to see it firsthand, you're welcome to come down as well.

🔸RSA and RCG
🔸White Card
🔸First Aid
🔸Cert III in Business Administration
🔸Cert III in Individual Support (Ageing and Disability)

Skill shortages don’t just get solved at the hiring stage.

A lot of it comes down to the training and pathways people choose early on.

👉 Aspire Training & Development

If you're in business locally, it’s worth seeing how these pathways are being presented and where people are heading.

We are so proud and touched by one of our amazing students who recently completed her Certificate III in Individual Support.

Yesterday she took the time to personally visit our Team to say thank you, bringing flowers and chocolates as a gesture of her appreciation 💐

Moments like these truly remind us why we do what we do. Seeing our students grow, succeed and express gratitude means the world to our Trainers and Team.
Congratulations again on your achievement Rani, and thank you for such a thoughtful surprise - you made our day 🙏💛

As part of our training delivery for the Certificate III in Individual Support, our Trainers provide students with a guided walk through of a local aged care facility.

This experience allows students to familiarise themselves with the environment, routines, and daily operations of aged care prior to commencing their work placement.

We sincerely thank our local aged care facilities for their ongoing support and collaboration in helping prepare our students for success.
