As a Mature-Age student planning on returning to the workforce, I was seeking a course that would not only teach me office skills, but give me the confidence to use them in a work environment. The Pathways to Office Employment has done both. I was able to learn the content at a comfortable pace and am now at a stage where I finally believe I can choose the job that’s right for me.

The lecturers here are fantastic, with their priority on your success rather than a daily task. The mature environment has helped me focus on my studies with fellow students all striving toward the same goal.

I have found the Flying Start – English Second Language program to be very instructive and also a lot of fun. Shizuko Ito
