Professional Development Seminars
These seminars successfully target the questions most often asked by RTO managers, training coordinators and compliance officers. Few people appreciate a 'lecture'; our informal presentation style actively encourages your questions, comments and feedback. Our goal is to coach and empower participants to achieve a business culture of continuous improvement and professional development.
The comprehensive four (4) hour duration (9.00 am to 1.00 pm) means your day will not be unreasonably disrupted. Similarly, your investment of just $295 per seminar is intended to make attending both seminars financially realistic.
