It has been an absolute pleasure to be part of the first cohort to complete the Certificate IV in Chaplaincy and Pastoral Care. I would like to thank the whole team behind the design and implementation of the course. Your dedication, hard work and support has not gone unnoticed and has been greatly appreciated. I enjoyed gaining insight and knowledge from the reading material. The range of questions and tasks were accessible to complete. The opportunities to listen to and learn from the guest speakers each week that are in Chaplain roles was a particular highlight of the weekly zoom meetings. These guest speakers have certainly opened my eyes up to the opportunities available in the community as a Chaplain. I enjoyed the beautiful relationships formed over the 8 weeks with my fellow peers, and I valued their wide range of experiences in their work and personal lives that contributed to broadening my understanding of various content areas covered. I look forward to finding where I fit in the Chaplaincy role and providing opportunities to support others. I highly recommend the course at Rose Training and am grateful for the opportunity to branch into a new field of employment after a long teaching career.

Finding it very overwhelming at the moment with the information, as I recently enrolled but am excited and enthusiastic to learn. The course is very informative :)

Very easy to access and understand

I have just completed my Cert IV in Celebrancy with Rose Training & I have to say, it was an amazing experience. The Course content is EXTREMELY thorough and really does prepare you to run your on Marriage Celebrancy business. But the BIG kudos goes to Mark Burgess, our Student Services Coordinator. He is incredible! I am eternally grateful for his guidance, training, advice and support over the last 11 months. Couldn’t have done it without the ‘village support’ that comes from being on his training calls each week, which helped cement so many components of the legislation, forms, and expectations. He not only knows his stuff, but his delivery is honest, raw and nurturing. Thanks Mark and Rose Training.....can't wait to share the Frequency of Love with everyone!

I have loved doing this course. It has been really interesting and expansive. I would highly recommend it to others. I love how the course is laid out, and the learning from each cluster is stacked, gaining a deeper understanding as we continue throughout the course. I also love the visual aspect of seeing the activities and clusters turn green as they were completed, it was encouraging to see my progress as I went along. I really enjoyed the Wednesday night drop in classes too as it added a human connection aspect, as well as a community feeling which was very supportive. In regards to constructive criticism, the wording of some of the questions was confusing. I forgot to take note of which, but it felt evident that the questions had been written by different people. Having the wording formatted in one way would provide more continuity. For example, some questions would be grammatically incorrect, or instructions on what to name files when uploading would be inconsistent-I remember noticing this in Cluster 5. Another area which could be improved is with the feedback from assessors. Some assessors would provide helpful and specific feedback, and some would be more vague/unclear. It was also really helpful when some of the assessors would provide encouragement. Again, having the same standard/format across the board would provide more continuity and less confusion, as well as less follow up questions/emails to Mark-in my opinion. However, I do understand that humans make mistakes too, and would much rather have the course marked how it is, by humans, rather than a programme/AI. Overall, I have absolutely loved the process of becoming an authorised marriage celebrant! I feel very grateful and fortunate to have been able to complete my course with the help and support of all of the assessors and trainers involved. THANK YOU to you all at Rose Training.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the course. It has set me up for success as a celebrant not only for marriage but also other life ceremonies. It was a lot more work than I initially anticipated, however I have learnt about setting up a business and how to add value for couples and others.

I was incredibly happy with my experience of learning with Rose Training. I was studying celebrancy and had opted for online as it better suited my work and family commitments. The amount of support and direction offered was exemplary, at no point did I feel like I was alone or unable to seek assistance even though I was not attending any in person classes. The weekly drop-ins with Mark really helped to bolster my confidence in what I was doing. He gave clarification to areas that I was unsure about, direction in areas that I was struggling, and validation that the areas I felt confident in were correct. On paper it's easy to see his abundance of experience, and when you are listening to him discuss any areas of celebrancy it becomes evident that not only is he experienced but he is passionate about it also. However what I found most beneficial to my studies from the drop-in sessions was Mark's ability to explain and deliver information in a manner that can be understood. My interactions with everyone at Rose training followed a similar vein. I was always met with positivity and a pleasant demeanour. At every turn I felt supported and I genuinely believe that my progress and learning was their first priority. The course was by no means easy, with a considerable workload, however very achievable in the timeframes allowed to do it. I don't believe you could coast through and come out with a satisfactory completion of the course, but with the amount of support and direction offered Rose Training do everything they possibly can to ensure you come out with a qualification because you are competent and capable in the areas you have studied. I would definitely recommend Rose Training to anyone considering further education. They will be my first stop should I ever decide to take on another learning journey.

Thoroughly enjoyed the course Thank you :)

Clear and sufficient course materials. Supportive trainers.

I have enjoyed every aspect of the course immensely The assessors were very kind and respectful with their remarks and feedback I felt like I was part of the Rose Training Family The knowledge that I have gained up till know has made me wiser and more knowlege-able Rose training Australia has really helped me with the shaping of my future.

I found the course very easy to sign up for. The course material is very comprehensive. The virtual group sessions were informative and helpful.

Instruction was delivered in a very concise and measured way. I undertook the Zoom classroom option and enjoyed the classes as taught by the various trainers. The course was not difficult but Tasks were expected to be of a high standard, teaching us very good habits and emphasising the importance of the role we were being taught and the responsibility we were learning. All tutors were patient, informed and helpful - assisting whenever required with good grace. I would highly recommend the Rose Training course. Thank you.
