Things have changed over time, but I stayed my best self and didn’t give up. I really wanted a new career and enrolled in this course to gain the knowledge and experience; but also to be challenged by new ideas. I’m now employed in the sector and really enjoying it. I would say, take a risk, and see what can happen for you. Bravo Hamisi!

I have always been interested in Business and studied it in high school. I was offered a Certificate III Business traineeship with CONNECT and jumped at the chance. The opportunity to continue my studies through ACE after my initial Traineeship was the perfect outcome for me to continue furthering my career. I would say that having a wealth of knowledge can only help your future prospects and may help you decide exactly where you want to go in life. Currently I have been promoted to a higher-level position in my job and plan to stay for a long time, as I love what I do.

I have known of ACE for years, probably decades and always had an interest in the care industry. Future employment opportunities in this field seem solid. I found that the information in the course is essential to be an effective carer. The face to face teaching was great and I gained as much, if not more, from the practical information given by our teacher and class discussion.

Karen, our teacher, has worked in the industry for years and gave us a real understanding – invaluable to have theory filled out with practical advice.

I was a Beauty Therapist, but I wanted something more, a change in my career direction. I walked passed ACE regularly until one day I decided to walk in and ask about aged care courses, from there it was full steam ahead.

You get a real sense of achievement in completing the course. I am starting in a residential facility soon, which will help boost my confidence and experience.
