Online to on-siteWhile many people think additional training may not benefi t them, Kevin Sutcliffe, Training Coordinator with GO2

Skills and Training, believes it will.

“Let’s say you did a Cert IV in Safety,” Mr

Sutcliffe said. “Even if the jobs you were

going for weren’t safety roles, those extra

skills and knowledge are looked upon

favourably.”

A sizeable aspect of training in recent years

has been held online but Mr Sutcliffe believes

face-to-face training is more effective.

“A large part of our population has tried

an online course at some point or another

and not fi nished,” he said. “Learners need

a sounding board to bounce ideas and

concepts off – you just don’t get that from a

website.

“A good trainer and assessor is essentially

a people-person and can decipher what

makes the individual tick. It is the little things

a trainer does in terms of helping students

develop their own cognitive skills, which is

the real advantage.”

Mr Sutcliffe said he did not rule out online

training but was a strong advocate for on-

site training, a specialty service of GO2 Skills

and Training.

“There’s so many benefi ts to it,” he said of

on-site training. “It provides clients with an

unbiased resource that doesn’t get wrapped

up in the offi ce politics.

“In-house training departments are often

seen as a proponent of change - humans

generally don’t like change, so when

rolling out training on new procedures or

equipment it’s a real advantage to be able

to do it with a ‘clean slate’, so to speak.

“If we can turn up on-site and teach it makes

it so much easier.”

The on-site training is a part of the

organisation’s commitment to fl exibility.

“Flexibility matters a lot to the learner – and

it matters a lot to their family and their

employer,” Mr Sutcliffe said.

Training will upgrade your skillsWhether you’re starting a new

career, want a bit of a step up in

your current one or just want to

brush up and learn a few skills,

a great way of doing this is

practical training.

This feature contains information about training companies in a wide range of fi elds, from welding to hospitality to animation, as well as safety courses.

Training providers work with industry and business to ensure you can achieve the skills and nationally-recognised qualifi cations needed to put your best foot forward in the job market.

These skills will give you experience and qualifi cations to give you a competitive edge in a very competitive marketplace, enhancing your career prospects.

Get closer to your careerLove watching Masterchef? A career

in hospitality may be for you.

The Australian College of Applied Education

(ACAE) teaches a huge variety of subjects

and is the only private training provider

to deliver training to Australian chef

apprentices.

School of Culinary Arts Director Max

Tangermann said the cookery and patisserie

program – which teaches students to

become professional chefs and patissiers –

was strongly supported and recognised by

the culinary industry.

“We use techniques and ingredients related

to what is happening in the industry right

now,” he said. “We try to have close contact

with the industry and I think this is our

main strength as we can react quickly and

prepare students.”

Mr Tangermann, who has been at the

college for 15 years, said previous graduates

were performing excellently in the workplace.

“From the very early days, I have seen many

people coming through this course and they

are now successful chefs all over the world,”

he said.

“I recently visited my former students in New

York and had a look at their operations and

their restaurants – it was fantastic seeing

them.”

Mark Simmons, an ex-student of Mr

Tangermann who attended ACAE in 1999,

now owns and runs a restaurant in Brooklyn,

New York called Kiwiana.

Following his ACAE education and an

apprenticeship at Perth’s Parmelia Hilton, Mr

Simmons went to Melbourne, then to Japan

where he discovered the Japanese cuisine

style.

Following this, Mr Simmons became part of

the popular American reality TV show Top

Chef and opened his popular restaurant in

New York.

“He’s doing extremely well for himself as

he built his restaurant from scratch,” Mr

Tangermann said. “He’s got some fantastic

dishes on his menu and the restaurant has a

real homely feel to it.”

ACAE is an award-winning and highly-

respected Registered Training Organisation

(RTO) and was awarded the WA

International Training provider of the Year

2012. It was also a fi nalist for the WA Small

Training Provider of the Year award.

Located in the heart of Perth’s CBD, ACAE incorporates four schools, all with strong industry links:

• School of Business and Management

• School of Accounting and Finance

• School of Tourism and Hotel Management

• School of Culinary Arts

The college has taken its students closer to achieving their career goals, including becoming apprentice chefs, developing careers in hospitality, events and tourism, and gaining qualifi cations in business and management.

An exciting and rewarding careerEstablished for more than 20 years, the Perth College of Beauty

Therapy is a leader in makeup training and has name recognition in the

industry, with its accreditations recognised worldwide.

Studying the Diploma of Specialist

Makeup Services at the college gives

students the opportunity to pursue an

exciting, creative and rewarding career

as a makeup artist, working alongside

fashion photographers and designers.

In 2011, the college moved into a

fabulous new building with a purpose-

built makeup studio.

“I’ve loved every minute of the initial two

months,” Diploma of Specialty Makeup

Services student Denis said.

“Everything – every bit of information I

have learnt whilst here I have already

been applying in my makeup application

in the workplace and at home.”

The next course starts on January 14,

2013, with classes three days a week

for six months, and there are no pre-

requisites to join.

The fun and unique course is designed

to prepare students for a career in the

entertainment, fashion, fi lm, TV, bridal,

theatre, beauty and retail industries. It

combines theory, demonstrations and

hands-on instruction.

Students will create a portfolio of work,

a professional photographic album,

business card, bald caps and use

prosthetic pieces.

Techniques include facial crepe hair,

body painting, bald caps, special effects,

burns and wounds, casualty simulation,

prosthetics, hairstyling for make-up and

much more.

This course covers all the essentials with

many advanced make-up techniques

covering the fundamental skills necessary

to work with print ads, high fashion, ‘glam’

and bridal make-up, fashion magazines,

fi lm, television, music videos, runway

shows, theatre and special effects.

A quantum leapStudents at QANTM College can choose from a number of interesting,

thought-provoking programs taught by industry-experienced lecturers, with

programs available in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

These programs include a Bachelor

of Creative Media degree majoring in

Graphic Design, a Bachelor of Interactive

Entertainment majoring in Interactive

Media or Animation and majors in Games

Programming and Games Design.

The Perth campus currently offers two

bachelor degree majors which, with a 50-

week per year operational period, can be

completed within two intensive years.

These are the Bachelor of Interactive

Entertainment (major in Animation) and the

Bachelor of Interactive Entertainment (major

in Games Design).

Animation students at

QANTM will graduate

well-versed in all aspects

of the creative process,

from the earliest stages

of concept design to its

implementation in various

interactive entertainment platforms.

In addition to creative and practical skills

involved in animation production, students

will also be exposed to the business

aspects of the industry.

“One of the great aspects of SAE QANTM

is the industry connections both inside

and outside the classroom,” Aaron Welch,

QANTM graduate and proprietor of www.

redbirdcreative.com.au, said.

“Not just the lecturers but all the staff have

lots of experience which they are more than

happy to share. Thanks to my awesome

lecturer Dan Moller, I was inspired to do

my best and push myself to graduate with

highest 3D animation skills possible.”

QANTM Colleges are HE and VET-

accredited educational providers and are

FEE HELP and VET FEE HELP approved. Qualifi cations easier than you thinkOver the past decade the number of Western Australia’s major oil and

gas, mining and construction projects has boomed, creating a huge

amount of jobs and causing a labour shortage of qualifi ed welders.

“Welding trades are already short of

qualifi ed capable welders,” co-owner of

the Australian Welding Academy Joanne

Olsen said. “It’s already well and truly

here – we are dealing with employers in

a daily basis.”

The lack of welders has created an

opportunity for talented tradespeople

in the profession to earn large amounts

of money – however, with the mining

industry’s stringent qualifi cation

requirements, it is becoming increasingly

diffi cult to get high-paying jobs without

formal qualifi cations.

“There are a massive number of guys

working in the industry as welders

very confi dently, who have no formal

qualifi cations,” Mrs Olsen said.

“Everyone wants to get the good paying

jobs and to get those jobs you need to

have the minimum requirements, that are

either trade qualifi cations – for example

Certifi cate III – or the ability to pass

coded welder qualifi cations.”

It’s not only people who don’t have the

qualifi cations who may need to do a

course – international qualifi cations are

also commonly not recognised.

“There are a lot of guys from overseas

who fi nd that their qualifi cations aren’t

recognised in Australia who may be

eligible to go through the Recognition

of Prior Learning process as well,” Mrs

Olsen said.

Mrs Olsen said getting the relevant

qualifi cations was a great idea for

tradespeople, even if they didn’t

currently need them.

“It’s a relatively small investment in their

future which allows them the potential

to open millions of doors, that without

those formal qualifi cation will be closed

to them,” she said.

A career evolution, aligning skills and dreams Dr Andrew Papa-Adams changed the direction of his career and took control of his future by studying an MBA

through the Curtin Graduate School of Business.

A practising doctor, he felt a desire to move

into business but lacked the skills in this

area.

Having trained as a doctor in the UK, Dr

Papa-Adams worked in this fi eld for almost

four years including roles at Joondalup

Hospital and St John of God Subiaco and

Murdoch, before deciding medicine wasn’t

for him. The doctor still had a passion for

working in healthcare, so he decided to

diversify.

After gradually moving out of medicine,

Dr Papa-Adams found himself working as

Marketing Manager for Oceanic Medical

Imaging, a position he held for three years

despite initially having no experience in the

fi eld. Despite his natural ability, he lacked the

confi dence to move ahead.

Dr Papa-Adams was encouraged by his

colleagues to investigate an MBA at Curtin

University because of its reputation for

graduates that are able to hit the ground

running in their chosen fi eld and the strong

network of industry contacts.

In January, shortly after completion of his

MBA, he was appointed Chief Executive

Offi cer of Oceanic Medical Imaging. Before

his appointment, four directors ran the

company.

The Curtin MBA enabled him to use his

medical knowledge and apply it to the

business world, where his heart lay.

“I knew medicine was not for me but I didn’t

want to waste my medical skills,” Dr Papa-

Adams said.

“Oceanic Medical Imaging had such a good

vision and mission. I knew I was well-aligned

with it so my extra study allowed me to stay

with the company in a role I desired and was

passionate about.

“Studying an MBA in CBS allowed me to

develop my skills in the areas that were

needed to reach my goals.

“I found the lecturers so helpful and

appreciated the fl exibility of the degree and

the support that was given.

“The MBA was perfect for me, but I would

say, even to people who are not looking to

pursue the entire MBA, a little bit of business

knowledge would help anyone running their

own business, even doctors with their own

practice.”

Sounds like a great careerThinking about a career in sound? It could be closer than you think

with a stint at SAE Perth.

Michael Unwin, aka drum and bass

producer Niwun, is a graduate of both

the Certifi cate III in Music and Diploma of

Sound Production in Perth.

He now works as the Digital Arts Offi cer

for the City of Swan and part-time

technician at ABC where he assists with

broadcasting sporting events – namely

AFL, WAFL and cricket.

“The majority of my technical knowledge

as well as a good knowledge of the

creative audio industry and how it

operates were learnt at SAE Institute,”

Mr Unwin said.

“Probably more important to me though

is the fact that I’ve been welcomed into

a network of like-minded individuals and

developed a great set of connections.”

Aside from this Mr Unwin recently signed

two tracks to UK-based independent

record label Ruin Me Records.

“The label is headed by drum and bass

producer Marianas, and he will be

remixing my track Silicon Funk which will

be released alongside the original,” Mr

Unwin said.

He plans to release a couple more

singles in the coming months.

Qualifi ed for safetyHealth and safety qualifi cations are becoming increasingly important, with

corporations seeking to assure themselves they are advised by suitably-

qualifi ed professionals.

“With the introduction of new Harmonised

Work Health and Safety laws imminent, or

in some states already passed into law, it is

becoming increasing evident that offi cers of

corporations, (generally management), need

to ensure that they are advised by suitably

qualifi ed professionals,” General Manager

of Workplace Safety Solutions at IFAP Ross

Pratt said.

Mr Pratt said that while a Certifi cate IV

in Occupational Safety and Health had

traditionally been seen as the entry-level

qualifi cation to gain employment in the

safety and health fi eld, this scenario was

rapidly changing.

He said it was widely recognised in

industry that an appropriate blend of formal

qualifi cations at a tertiary level and relevant

experience in the fi eld were essential for

the development of a safety and health

professional.

General Manager for Offshore and Maritime

at IFAP Mark Small agreed.

“It is essential – without hands-on

experience it is hard for people to apply the

theory that they have learnt,” he said.

According to Mr Pratt, senior managers

are becoming more aware of the need for

sound knowledge in workplace health and

safety.

A better understanding of the

commensurate liability they carry in

their positions is driving many to seek

management-level training in workplace

health and safety laws and systems.

Mr Pratt said IFAP had also seen a

marked increase in participation by

senior management in training courses

such as Managing Safety and Legal

Responsibilities.

Opportunities for everyoneKingston Training and Employment and DNA Nursing Australia offer diverse

career opportunities ranging from welding, occupational health and safety

management, to dental nursing qualifi cations.

Certifi cates III and IV in Dental Assisting

provide graduates with a 99 per cent

employment rate in the dental industry.

Additionally, the Diploma in Dental

Technology is full-time for international

students with apprenticeship opportunities

for local students.

Ex-dental student Lucie Heil had a great

time studying at the DNA South Perth Bank

Clinic, choosing dental nursing after her

partner – already in the dental industry –

inspired her to take it up.

“I found the lecturers at the college to

be very professional in their approach to

ensuring students are well looked after in all

aspects of their study and provided great

support and help throughout the course,”

Ms Heil said.

“I found studying nursing to be very

interesting with the learning structure based

on a combination of theory classes and

clinical practical sessions.”

Ms Heil found a part-time job as a dental

nurse just once month after studying.

“As the college is very fl exible and

understanding to students’ needs, I was

able to change my studies to part time in the

last term and be concentrated on my full-

time job now,” she said.

“The qualifi cations gained through DNA

Nursing Australia enable me to specialise

or further my studies in other areas of

dentistry.”

With experienced trainers and excellent

facilities, Kingston Training offers welding

(engineering) training for all skill levels,

requiring codes or a formal qualifi cation such

as Certifi cate II, III and IV in Engineering.

The Certifi cate IV in OHS and Diploma and

Advanced Diploma in Management are

available in traineeships, part-time, full-time

or correspondence modes.

The programs provide graduates with

excellent opportunities for employment

through hands-on practical training, work

experience and employment assistance.

Courses provide pathways to enter various

university courses for further education.
