A CTS STAR STUDENT!

Meet Niomi Higgs, QSE/HR Manager at MGM Bulk. 

Nomes has recently completed her Diploma of Work Health and Safety with CTS through RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) and remains one of our most committed students to continued learning and national recognition. 

Nomes came to the RPL process highly organised with a keen sense of the type of evidence and knowledge that needed to be demonstrated to complete the qualification in this often underrated mode (RPL). It was a fantastic example of keeping lines of communication open with trainer/assessor Jonathan and dedication to commit to the process. 

Thanks Niomi, for being a star student! 
THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK

Shannon attended our short, sharp, two-hour Presentation workshop on January 30 and provided us with some great feedback:

"I recently completed a 2-hour workshop at Combined Team Services on "Present Presentations for Impact" and found it extremely valuable. Jonathan was a fantastic teacher, I found the content easy to understand and aimed at the right level for the people in attendance. Thank you! I look forward to training with CTS again in the future."

Thanks for your feedback Shannon, we are so glad you enjoyed the session. 

If you've had a great experience and want to share it, please leave a facebook review on our CTS Company Page.

Many new leaders go from the tools into leadership roles because they were... well, really good on the tools! 

More employers are looking at people who exhibit key leadership behaviours and not just hold a supervisor or leading hand title.   There's a lot that goes into leading people and projects, and working with teams to get the best results. 

Join the CTS team for two days of knuckling down on the performance goals of yourself, your teams and your tasks. 

You take away a practical guide to immediately implement all the great strategies we show you. This guide isn't just a read and watch the words swarm on the page (boring!!), but a logbook that get's you completing real leadership tasks in real time that will make real improvements in the way you lead and the way your team responds to you. 

Assessment for three (3) Leadership and Management units is free and completely optional.  Make your booking online now!
