"NDA gave me the confidence to step outside my comfort zone, continue my learning journey, and believe that I could achieve more than I thought possible."
Few things give us greater pride than sharing the stories of the people who train with us, and Aki Chang's is a particularly special one. Our CEO, Warren Ferrari, travelled down to interview Aki in person, because knowing our learners as individuals is woven into how NDA operates.
Aki chose NDA because she preferred to study in person, and because our reputation kept surfacing in her community. From her very first class, the calibre of support proved decisive:
"The support from everyone at NDA has been exceptional. The classroom culture creates an environment where learning feels safe, engaging and encouraging. The learning materials are also highly accessible, particularly for people who have English as a second language."
And Aki did not stop at one course. She went on to complete a Diploma of Human Resource Management, a Diploma of Business, and a Diploma of Leadership and Management with NDA.
The outcome? Renewed confidence in communication, sharper critical thinking, and the conviction to pursue opportunities aligned with what she truly wants to do.
When we asked Aki what she would say to someone weighing up training with NDA: "I highly recommend NDA. The knowledge shared is extensive, highly relevant and immediately applicable to both work and life."
Congratulations Aki! Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey.
