Supportive

The learning material was simple to follow and I was able to complete in my own time. There were plenty of offers of assistance, particularly if there had been a little time lapse between submitting completed modules. When asking for support, it was always readily available.

Very positive experience

I only have great things to say about my experience with Fortress. The vocational training landscape can be tough to navigate, extremely tough sometimes. Fortress took time to understand my needs and expectations and provide expert advice with empathy and patience, and helped me avoid committing to the wrong options. Based on my experience you can engage them with great confidence. Particular vouch for Emma thanks again 👍

Training through Fortress

The enrolment process at Fortress was easy and very streamline, they were honest in what the cost would be and there was no pressure. They offered a payment plan which made it affordable. I was introduced to my trainer Jayne who was fantastic. Jayne was really good at responding to emails and made things clear of what needed to be done. We had regular meetings online to go through my work, which made it easy. I would highly recommend Fortress for any learning as they were always there to help, it made it easy going at my own pace, and they were always super friendly.

Thank you it was a trying time as I had little chance to get into it properly due to work commitments. However a very enjoyable experience, challenging at times. But the overall experience was awesome. I am hoping to get into a TAFE but currently there are no jobs available close enough to where I live. Thanks again.

Having participated in many courses over the last 25 years, many of which were boring, unsupportive and did not meet the expectations and criteria.

Fortress Learning on the other hand provided an online course that was easy to navigate, backed up the program with excellent learning resources, provided the ability to practice learning on line and gauge your progress.
The assessment process on submission was always prompt and feedback positive and encouraging.

Their personal support was fantastic and my very deepest thanks to Emma who was always there to guide me, provide encouragement and above had time for a personal chat.

Thank you very much for allowing me to regain my Cert IV TAE16

Alex, the pleasure was entirely ours. You faced and overcame personal challenges and circumstances to demonstrate such experience, calmness and dedication in completing your course. This attitude to life and attitude to being the best facilitator you can be does speak volumes about the type of person you are and I shall miss our calls very much. You are an inspiration to me and I am sure many others, Alex. Stay in touch and wishing you all the very best for the future both personally and professionally.

Warm regards,
Emma and the Fortress Team

Help when I needed it.
The only downside was the time waiting for assessments to be marked.

Thank you for your kind words and 5-star review, Alan. We're pleased to hear that you were satisfied with our communication and support throughout your training.

Congratulations on achieving your Diploma of VET! Your hard work and dedication have paid off.

We do strive to mark assessments sooner than our 4-business day turnaround time, but unfortunately, it’s not always feasible. We appreciate your understanding and glad to hear that this didn't negatively impact your overall experience.

Thanks,
Jane

I really enjoyed the immense support I received from the trainers and student support team whom I interacted with. Big thank you to Brian and Richard there were always available and responded in time notwithstanding the fact that I was in a country 7 hours behind. Also, the way Fortress learning has organized the learning resources and step by step for solo Session's guide is quite credible. I look forward to choosing Fortress learning to advance my studies.
