I started with CAL last year and it has been such an amazing experience. I started as a nervous student, not sure really what I had gotten myself into!I definitely could not have gotten this far without the help and support of the coaches, but one coach in particular has made such a huge impact on my studying and that wonderful coach is Roma. Roma has always been my best advocate. She mentors me in so many ways.Roma encourages me to stay on track and progress with my units, when sometimes all I want to do is give up.Roma is kind, empathetic, a very good listener and overall just a beautiful human!Roma has a wealth of knowledge and I know I can always count on Roma to support and mentor me when I'm stuck. I don't just consider Roma to be my coach, I also consider her to be a lifelong friend. When I have hit a roadblock with a unit, I can always count on Roma to guide me through and coach me in ways of encouraging me to re-think and reconsider the situation of the case study and this always opens up a new way of thinking and allows me to feel more confident within myself to get me back on track and back into my studying.Roma, I honestly cannot thank you enough. You have become such an inspiration to me and make me feel so confident within myself. I couldn't have made it as far as I have without you.Thank you xx

I was initially hesitant when enrolling for CAL for Double Diploma of Practice Management & Leadership. I have no regrets meeting my coach Roma. I have never been keen with online study, as personally I prefer face-to-face learning but with a full-time job, I have found studying with CAL to be more practical with my busy schedule. I would highly recommend Roma to any new students. She is a delight to coach with, she has an aura that's approachable and she is very patient. She is a very encouraging mentor & very professional on giving advice.

Great experience with CAL! Materials easy to understand and use, workload and expectations appropriate for our busy working lives, and most importantly, great professional staff always available only a call away, when support required or just for an encouraging chat. The assessor/coach I dealt almost exclusively with, Marissa, has been absolutely fantastic throughout, with advice, coaching, encouragement and support, which I greatly appreciated, especially around the halfway mark, when completing this 2-year course seemed so far away at times! With perseverance and great support, I completed the course and am already thinking about the next one!

This rating is purely based on my experience with Marissa. I was very grateful to have her as my coach as she really understood my needs as an adult learner. I found a lot of the content difficult to decipher but she kept me calm and took a realistic approach to the assessments, much more than what anyone else at the college did. I appreciated her quick responses to all of my submissions and her encouragement when I just wanted to give up.

To further my knowledge in WHS I decided to sign up with CAL for a Cert IV in this field, the Cert IV course was not just a "do a module and move on" but became a learning journey that was interesting, challenging but most of all pleasurable, the college support was unbelievable, if I had questions the live chat student support would point me in the right direction.Being in my 60's I was unsure if I had the ability to succeed, my coach Robyn kept me motivated and driven, my success came.I will recommend CAL to any of my work colleagues internal, or external, that wish to take on further study as from my experience, the courses are well managed and supported, the Cert IV has become a wealth of knowledge for me and has enabled me to enhance skills and apply new ones learned.Looking back, I have enjoyed every minute of it.

This rating is purely based on my experience with Marissa L. I have had difficulties with other coach but then I found Marissa. I'll try to keep it short, however Marissa L is the best learning coach that I've encountered whilst my study with CAL.I am so grateful for all the support, encouragement and help I received from her throughout. She is a very kind and considerate towards the time and efforts students put in.She is extremely organised and very responsive. She offers many additional advices/tool to help with the process and she definitely goes out of her way to ensure students are getting what they need.I would highly recommend Marissa L to everyone who are struggling in their course at the moment or taking course with CAL. I would have given 1000 stars if possible for Marissa L!

Originally I was intending to do a Double Diploma however I found the Project Management content was very outdated, however, with the new refresh of content in the last 12 months I have found CAL certainly picked up it's game. I had some great coaches - Kerri and Marissa - who really helped me. Loved the flexibility of self paced study.

I have just completed my double diploma in HR Management and Business Admin. This has been one of the best online platforms that I have used for my learning experiences. The content Is excellent and very thorough, there are various methods you can use, depending on your learning style. There is a lot of work, but is totally rewarding as you work through it. My biggest take home is if you have any issues or get stuck is to always communicate with the lecturers or even the office staff, the whole team is super supportive. I struggled a couple of times with work time pressures where it got too much, the CAL team where very supportive and assisted me through it. Kerry and Marissa where both great facilitators when working though my major assignments, and thanks them both for making it an easy process. At the end of the day CAL want you to pass and will work with you through the process. Thanks to the CAL team!!! 😎😎

I recently finished my double diploma of building and construction / project management through CAL. It is a great course and I learnt a lot along the way - a great experience and there is always plenty of support through the CAL team and the facebook group. Nasser was very helpful throughout the course as well!

I have just completed my double diploma in project management and leadership management. It has a lot of information and I learned so much. The price you pay in money and mentality was worth having these two diplomas now and I can’t thank CAL enough. I have always had good experiences with the coach’s, timing and content. I would recommend studying with CAL to anyone. Just chip away at it and keep motivated.

In the current climate, we are all facing I have found that my coach and also the student support and administration has been VERY helpful, reassuring and timely in their communication and help. I enjoy the course and my experience from the start has been great. The effort is on me to contact and reach out and once I did this the team was on my questions immediately.

I found my whole experience with CAL to be a positive one. It's been many years since I have been in a "school" environment, so it took some discipline to get through this course. I set myself a 2 hour minimum study period each day which took a fair bit of effort and focus, as I work full-time plus have a family to look after. It was hard initially, but after a couple of weeks, I found my rhythm and it was smooth sailing after that. I also didn't put any pressure on myself-if I had a bad day at work-I didn't touch any study as I found no joy when I hit the books in that frame of mind, and that made it hard work. So, I found giving study a miss for one or two days actually beneficial, and when I did go back, I was more involved and interested in my course than before. I have nothing but praise for the support I received from the whole team at CAL - from the admin staff to the tutors. They responded quickly and the coaching calls helped me to get to the next questions/units quickly. A big thank you to each of you for the part you played in helping me achieve a long-held goal. I highly recommend CAL to anybody who is looking to take on some study. The content is laid out well and easily followed. The exercises for each topic and the assessments went a long way in ensuring that the information absorbed was drilled home.

CAL provided a great opportunity to learn at your own pace. I would highly recommend their Diploma of Project Management if you are new to the field and looking for an opportunity to learn as you do. The Diploma greatly supported the project I was working on at the time, running me through all the steps as I implemented them.

I have just completed a double diploma with CAL. I found all of the staff there very supportive indeed and did not experience any rudeness whatsoever. Unforeseen circumstances meant that i had to request an extension , CAL were very professional in their response and understanding. Studying online is not for everyone and can be difficult if you are returning back to study after a long period. However CAL are there to support you it just takes a little bit of time to get a response from your coach, but once you are speaking with them they clarify and help you with your course work. I would recommend sourcing a study group either students from CAL or somewhere else where you can bounce ideas off each other regarding the course. This will help you as you work through the self directed learning and complete your tasks and activities in the course.Thanks to all the team at CAL who helped me through my course and got me to the end.

I’m currently doing a double diploma of construction management and Project Management. All the coaches and staff at CAL have been very helpful and the studies have been great as they provide all the text books and study resources that I need to understand all processes and regulations involved in the field I am pursuing.

I recently completed the Double Diploma in Project Management | Leadership and Management. From my initial enquiry and dealings with Tristan who was super helpful, informative and supportive, through to starting the course with the help of Student engagement coach David who helped me every step of the way and checked in to see how I was getting on, The College for Adult Learning was a fantastic learning experience which exceeded my expectations. With each Unit completed the next would be unlocked straight away and marked within the times stated (generally in half the time). The feedback from the coaches was the best of all always super encouraging and supportive but also included much needed advice in areas that may require extra study or focus. Anything I was unsure of I simply booked a time that suited me for a coach to call me to discuss anything I was unsure about. I highly rate and recommend CAL and look forward to studying with them again in the near future! Thanks so much guys !!
