4/3/2019: “Dear Sandy, I would just like to say thank you so much for all of your encouragement, advice and understanding through this course. Words do not justify how much your knowledge and personal ability helped in me in achieving this qualification. The day I rang around different RTO's I instantly knew ITTA was the best fit for me.

I feel so fortunate to have completed this qualification with this RTO and to have had the privilege of having Sandy as my Trainer and Assessor.” Ann-Marie Chandler

My Head of VET has seen the level of which you conduct the courses and has said that anyone else who wants a Cert 4 through the College she wants it to go through you guys for that high standard. Thank you again for all the support throughout the course.” BH
26/3/2019: “The academy staff have facilitated a very smooth and pleasant learning experience for me. Especially my assessor Cyril, who has shown exceptional level of subject matter knowledge and patience with me throughout the whole course. Much appreciated.” VC
19/5/19: “Many thanks for running a first class training course. I would like to place on record my strongest gratitude for the constant energy and guidance we were given by Cyril throughout the course. He maintained that delicate balance of pushing us forward to challenge ourselves whilst providing the appropriate level of support when needed. He was instrumental in me achieving a rewarding outcome.” G Fisk
25/6/19: “Oh my goodness Carolyn I think I’m in shock!! Thank you so much for all of your guidance and support. I have learnt so much from doing this – even as an RPL. There is so much work we do as VET teachers and a lot I never thought to put a name against let alone a whole unit of competency! Thank you again – I look forward to receiving my pretty certificate and transcript in the mail. Best wishes to you – I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my training with ITTA. I will be back”. JW

2/7/20: Hi Jo. I have to say that you have taught me a lot about giving feedback. When I review your feedback, even when I have mucked the thing up, you are so encouraging and positive and I don't feel as though I have failed. I have to say I agree with Carolyn that you are a "national treasure" and I am thankful for your tolerance and patience with me. TN
20/7/20: Finishing my TAE40116 during Coronavirus lockdown was challenging at first, however the unwavering support of Cyril Wood and the ITTA team not only kept me in check but were also able to apply reasonable adjustments to course criteria that allowed for an equitable and consistent assessment during this unprecedented time. I qualified myself and obtained a teaching position within 2 months. Frank Meura
4/11/20 Dear Sandy. I would like to thank you sooo much for your support throughout this course. I cannot say that I enjoyed this course, because I didn’t. But I enjoyed working with you Sandy. And I learned a lot. You were a consistent support, you were practical (especially during this difficult time of gathering restrictions). You went out of your way make adjustments to the course to cater for these crazy times. The turnaround between assessment submission and receiving feedback was exceptional.
It’s been an absolute pleasure meeting you Sandy, and working with you. Thank you! MH
4/11/20 I have left a very positive review on the Google page with mention of Cyril and his professional approach. The course was very well designed and managed. Workshops that I attended were very helpful and filled in the gaps related to course work. The videos within each unit were also helpful and helped reinforce the learning materials better. If all courses were like this, students would find learning and understanding course work a much better experience. Cyril also was able to streamline the learning experience via clarifying key points and culling any unnecessary information or confusion. All of this added up to a very rewarding learning experience that was at times very challenging but provided a very solid foundation of knowledge related to Cert IV Training & Assessment. Thank you again Cyril and ITTA. MT
31/12/20 Hi Sandy. Just want to send a big and sincere thank you to you for your expertise, patience and support of me while I completed my Cert IV. I really appreciate it and I hope to work with you again. DG
22/6/21 Dear Jess and Cyril. Thank you both very much for supporting me through big life times and a challenging study schedule. I am very grateful for Cyril my trainer and assessor who has delivered the training skilfully and supportively. At times it was hard for me but I was able to persist with Cyril's support and encouragement. I came from a place of over 12 months unemployment, life challenges and isolation to completing this qualification and gaining work whilst doing it. Cyril and the two learning groups assisted my confidence, encouraged and acknowledged my skills and character that I can offer to a workplace. Though this course content and heavy assessment load can be very painful it was worth it. For me the relationships made all the difference. SH
6/9/21 “Dear Sandy. Thank you so much for the opportunity to complete the Certificate IV TAE. Indeed it’s taken some perseverance…but was never going to get the better of me! I am indebted to you for your faith, your dedication and support…not forgetting your expertise!” IS
5/11/21 Hi Jess. Sorry for the extremely late reply. Thank you very much for sending through the certificate and transcript. Also, my trainer was awesome (Cyril Wood). Would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for all your help. CH
10/1/22 Please pass on my thanks to Cyril for his instruction, help and assistance throughout the course that started in November 2020. I am proud to have achieved the qualification of TAE40116 Cert IV in Training and Assessment, and look forward to receiving the certificate. Thanks again and please pass on my best wishes to all the staff at ITTA. Regards TH
Thanks for setting up the TAE Zoom Support workshops. Great idea. I would have definitely joined if I needed the unit. Hopefully you have people attending. Collaboration and support is always good. SM
23/11/22 Hi David. Thanks again for your text and all your help completing this course, it has definitely been a challenging time and wish you all the best. TP
23/11/22 Thanks Cyril. I have been selected to become a Training Captain. This was my original aim and the course was something I could add to the resume and discuss at my interview. Therefore, I am definitely glad I did the course. Thanks for your assistance and guidance. GV
13/3/23 I just wanted to send this email to let you know that I am grateful for the training I received through ITTA. I have not studied in a long time and was nervous about starting back to study online. I found the online systems used by ITTA to be very user friendly. The workbooks and videos were easy to follow and the information was well presented. I am also grateful for the level of support offered by Chris Dixon. Chris was always responsive and his feedback was helpful and straightforward. His gentle guidance helped me to come to my own understanding of the concepts I was learning. I have recommended ITTA to colleagues considering studying Training and Assessment. Thank you for a great learning experience. AH
