Many of us would like to rejoin the workforce but we don’t have the necessary skills or we need to update our skills to qualify for a position. I recently spoke with the Manager of the National Institute of Training about their nationally recognised and accredited training that encompasses various industries. They are currently offering Certificate II in:
- Business
- Customer Contact
- Food Processing
- Hospitality Operations
- Process Manufacturing
- Retail Operations
- Transport & Distribution (Warehousing & Storage)
Q “The training is comprehensive, how much does it cost?”
A (Manager of NIOT) Training is provided FREE OF CHARGE if you are:
- 25 years or older
- A permanent Australian Resident
- Have not completed Year 12 or Certificate II level qualifications or higher either in Australia or overseas
Q “Where can we receive training and what is the duration of most of your courses?”
A “Our organisation (National Institute of Training Pty Ltd) delivers its training in classroom environments around Australia and in some cases online.
Our courses are held over a 7 to 10 day period (excluding weekends) and the hours are 9:30am to 4pm.
Morning tea, lunch & afternoon tea is provided daily
Courses are also offered on a part-time basis. Distance can sometimes be a deterrent; therefore we can offer flexible off-site learning.”
Our trainers utilise the latest developments and initiatives in the industry.”
Q “What are the benefits for women enrolling in a vocational education course?”
A “Lana, there are numerous benefits. I’d like to share a number of comments we have received from women who enrolled with the National Institute of Training on why training would benefit them.”
"Being a stay at home mum I would like to have done something in my time to help me back in the workforce regarding education”.
“To obtain a qualification in my field of work”
“I wish to be employed in the Hospitality industry. I have found it hard to find a job and would like an opportunity to gain a certificate which would help me to find a job”.
“By enrolling in a vocational education course it will help me find work in the future and in other states”.
“I have a lot of hands on experience but no qualifications”.
“I believe if I learn a basic course, then I will want to study further”.
“I am a trained waitress and I would like to get back into the Hospitality field”.
“I’d also like to share comments received by participants who have completed courses.”
