Last week we had one of the greatest nights ever!

Four of the five finalists for ACT Trainee of the Year were our students, and our trainer Navjot was named Runner-Up for ACT VET Teacher/Trainer of the Year.

We’re pretty proud of what that says about the people learning and training with us.

Our students are building skills that can take them further, with trainers in their corner who know their individual goals, support their progress and want to see them succeed.

Congratulations Nathan, Elizabeth, Chloe, Ella and Navjot. We’re proud to be part of your journey.

Your path. Your pace. Your success.

Sometimes, a simple question can mean more than we realise. 💛

This R U OK? Day, we’re reminded to check in with the people around us, not just today, but whenever something doesn’t seem quite right.

You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need to make time, listen and let someone know you care.

Start with four simple steps:

- Ask R U OK?
- Listen
- Encourage action
- Check in

A meaningful conversation could make a real difference in someone’s day, or their life.

At Cple, we believe connection, compassion and looking out for one another help build stronger communities.

Feeling overwhelmed with all the pressure to pick a career? Get started with a qualification that opens many opportunities while you're still figuring it out.

Certificate II in Workplace Skills is an entry-level qualification that is valuable for any career path, and it gives you real skills employers need, without locking you into one direction before you're ready.

You can study while you're still at school (Years 10, 11 and 12).

A huge congratulations to Navjot (Jot), who has been named Runner-Up ACT VET Teacher/Trainer of the Year at the ACT Training Awards!

This award recognises an outstanding VET teacher or trainer who makes a significant difference to learners, industry and vocational education and training in the ACT.

For Jot, supporting students is about much more than delivering a qualification. She creates an encouraging environment where learners feel confident to challenge themselves, develop new skills and keep moving towards their goals.

Her manager, Rebecca, says Jot’s dedication and care are clear in everything she does:
“When I asked her what her dream job was, she answered, ‘This! Being a trainer and assessor.’ She truly loves what she does, and it shows.”

Jot’s students describe her as a strong and inspiring woman who genuinely wants to see them succeed. Their progress, confidence and career growth are a reflection of the care and commitment she brings to her role every day.

We are incredibly proud to have Jot as part of our Cple team and to see her contribution to vocational education recognised in this way.
Congratulations, Jot. A very well-deserved achievement! 👏

🏆 Nathan Snow is the 2026 ACT Trainee of the Year!

This award recognises his learning, commitment, growth, and leadership in early childhood education, as he continues to build his skills and experience, with a long-term goal of working in childhood psychology.

We’re incredibly proud to see how far he’s come and even more excited to see where he goes next.

Congratulations, Nathan! 🌟

Child-safe practice is not built in one training session. It is strengthened every day.

When educators understand their responsibilities and feel confident applying them, child-safe practice becomes part of everyday decision-making.

The Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care helps experienced educators build deeper capability in child-safe culture, leadership and compliance, alongside the supervision and reflective practice your service already provides.

Training is designed around your service:
• A dedicated trainer for each educator
• Online and face-to-face support
• Flexible training around your rosters
• Minimal disruption to your service

Eligible educators pay only a $350 administration fee through User Choice funding.
