Last week as part of National Skills Week, we were proud to welcome representatives from NSW Department of Education to our Certificate III in Individual Support class here in Sydney.

During their visit our Trainer Gil and First Aid Trainer Donna led an engaging session on First Aid and CPR, giving students practical, life-saving skills they’ll carry into their future roles in the care sector.
