“Nellie guided us with patience and professionalism.”

“Through the 10-week aged care Certificate III training at AIWT, we have learned a lot. Nellie, as our teacher, patiently guided us with her professional expertise. Her high standards for our assignments allowed us to repeatedly review our mistakes and build up our skills for serving the elderly. During class, she would repeat the key points we need to pay attention to when working in aged and disability care. By following her guidance, we were able to complete all the course requirements within 10 to 12 weeks as planned. If any of my friends are interested in studying the Certificate III in Aged Care, I would sincerely recommend this program to them.”
