Our Difference

Testimonials

Certificate IV in Aged Care

“The complete process was conducted extremely professional and I found the Training Assessor – Lexie – to be not only professional in her questioning also to be extremity knowledgeable in her way of questioning in regards to judging whether I had attained the required skills needed in my previous duties that would fulfil the requirements for the RPL process to be approved.”

Certificate IV in Aged Care

“I just wanted to thank you for allowing me to do my RPL in Cert III in Aged Care work at Southern Cross Connection. The surroundings were lovely, and everything was very professional but relaxing. Lorraine was thorough but kept it interesting. I’ve recommended this process to several others in my organisation.”

“I recently undertook a TM qualification with a Trainer/Assessor in Gladstone. As part of this I was required to participate in the Skilling Solutions RPL process. The process was fast whilst also being comprehensive. The information flow was great and I was given enough information to effectively complete the process. Thank you for acknowledging my work experience and taking it into account to receive my TM qualification. Certificate IV in TAA As a group we participated in the Skilling Solutions process to obtain our Certificate IV in TAA qualifications. Paul, our trainer, was methodical, thorough and very professional in his dealings. As teachers, we believed that you couldn’t teach old dogs new tricks, but we were mistaken. The whole process was swift and much easier than we first thought. Thank you Paul for assisting us.”

The speed and precision with which Dianne (Trainer) projected the material was impressive. She has a tremendous skill in pushing people past the details and onto the big picture.
