Hi all I took a tmi theory and practical course. Really well taught by Jason explained everything exceptionally well. Took all questions from the group and explained everything in the best possible way for the group to understand. Thank you and well done. Thanks Paul.
Absolutely recommend this company todo your training. Jason was an awesome trainer, explained and listened when we needed help.
Thank you will be going back.
All the staff were extremely helpful. Scott the training officer was amazing. Everything explained perfectly and was relaxed environment. Cannot thank the team enough. Well done and Thankyou
Had a 2 day course (TMI & practical) with trainer Jason.K. He is full of energy and is very enthusiastic. He conducted the classes really well, and he ensures that everyone understood the content by explaining in a way his students could relate.
He is also very funny with the jokes and hand gestures, which (personally I think) grabs the attention of his students. Please give him a raise!!!!
My partner and I did our full TMI course with Jason at upskills. The whole process was seamless and enjoyable. The facilities were all clean, tidy and practical.
Jason's knowledge on the industry was very impressed and I look forward to doing business in the future and further training with Upsills QLD.
Did my White card, Traffic Control and TMI with trainer and assessor Fran alls I can say is the most precise and concise trainer I have ever been trained and assessed by. The course content and delivery was A1 and also fun along the way.
Was assessed by Craig and highly recommended him for his expertise as well all round experience was too notch and I feel comfortable and confident in every aspect of the job ahead.
A huge thank you 😊
Fran that did our tmi training kept the course content relevant & was very knowledgeable. She ran the class well & I would recommend her for doing any training with.
Have worked with Upskills QLD many times over the years and have always found their trainers and admin staff to be highly-educated and professional. Students have commented on the information delivered in the course to be like no other. Highly recommend.
I have been in touch with Upskills for a couple of months dealing with Michelle by phone she has a great phone manner, and with the number of calls she receives each it was nice of her to remember who I am. She explained the system clearly Michelle was great. The TC Training Course was run by Scott, he was also very friendly and welcoming, he was never perturbed by interrupting questions , he explained things clearly using many personal analogies. I could not recommend Upskills highly enough. Thanks Guys. ( Mmm is that the correct pronoun) Regards Keith
Great adult learning environment. Catered to my learning needs. Excellent method of instructional techniques by Jase. He was very engaging and enthusiastic which made the course far more interesting.
The course was very very precise reframing to all matters of safety and on road experience. Instructor was clear with all questions answers and very good at what she does. It was a pleasure training under upskill Thank you for your time and effort
Hi if your eva wanting to be trained for traffic control or tmi then fran from upskills is the best trainer I have eva had and I would back her any time and I'm so thankful as she tells it like it is and straight forward but cares and takes the time to teach by what eva way helps u like if it's theory she will teach in that way but if it's prac then she will train like that so you have the best start in your new career. Hands down I would suggest fran if anybody eva needed retraining or wanted to get into this career. Love your work fran. And thanks again. Upkills all the way !!!!!!!!
I’d like to give a big shout out to my trainer Scotty at Kippa-Ring not only was he informative and knowledgeable but made the course fun. Very approachable and also open to different opinions, he was also very helpful to others having any type of difficulties through the 3 days I was there doing my TC, TMI and working in proximity modules. Thanks Scotty and look forward to seeing you again once I’ve got my 20 hours up to complete my TC training. 👍
Came in to do my renewal TC ticket. Jason was the trainer who was pumped full of knowledge ready to depart onto us! Was great to Learn of any changes to the industry as well as familiarise and get back to the basics! Jason and Upskills were amazing with the process and completing this ticket! Straight forward, direct and very approachable people! It was a little hike as I’m from south side of the city but worth the travel!
As a near 40yr old I was concerned about training into a new role, Fortunately our trainer Fran was very knowledgeable, explained things clearly, and she gave all students time and patience individually. I highly recommend Upskills.
I recently completed the White Card and Traffic Controller training with Upskills, and I couldn't be more impressed! The experience was great from start to finish. Jason, our trainer, made the sessions engaging and enjoyable.
If you're looking to get your White Card or Traffic Controller qualification, I highly recommend Upskills. It's not just about getting a certificate – it's about gaining the confidence and skills to succeed in the industry. Not only does it provide a solid certification, but it also effectively helps in finding a 20-hour placement. Big thanks to Jason and the team for a fantastic learning experience!
Recently did the TMI course . Absolutely brilliant. Great team to do training with . Jason is great takes his seriously as a trainer but adds the humour in to it . Highly recommended if you want a career change & need training. These guys will get you what you need .
Completed my full Traffic Control course with Upskills training. Incredible teachers including Jason and John. So professional and encouraging through the theory and practical side of things. Also huge shout out to Michelle and Megan for assisting with any queries and finding the 20 hour work placement. Couldn’t recommend enough!
I did my tmi and traffic control with Jason this week at Nambour APM he was very good helping and sharing his experience thank you and can't wait to do my final assessment with use thanks for all the equipment and ppe for me to get started with my placement
I enjoyed learning in this course with Hason. He is serious, focused, accurate personable & funny. This helps fir easier learning. He also goes the extra mile. Great way to learn. Appreciate the opportunity.
Absolutely proud to be a part of this company. My teacher ( Fran) was incredible. Frans style of teaching is incredible. She is very patient and calm. Witch gives you the feeling of not being overwhelmed with the course. Her terminologies and lingo are simplified so everyone can understand. My course teacher Fran has been the best teacher I have ever come across any type of Learning I have encountered.
“She deserves 10 out of 10 stars”
Doing TC/TMI traning with FRAN . What a breath of fresh air this teacher is .
Fran brings comfort to this learning experience which allows clear understanding of learning material . Fran has patient's with all learning personalities.
I feel confident in my knowledge thanks to Fran's teaching methods.
I was really not looking forward to this course after the last time I did. Such a surprise! Scotty was knowledgeable and fun. The day went quickly but I learnt so much. Cheers Scotty
Need to get tickets, these guys are awesome for renewals, and upskilling in general, scotty and Jase answer any and all questions I had during the courses, and remember when you doing something like this there's no such thing as stupid questions, and don't be afraid to speak up, they will help in any way they can! Definitely worth it, and will be using Upskills QLD when I need renewal again.
As a student, it's imperative to be taught by industry experts. Fran is interactive which keeps you engaged and engaged students will always learn more. 8 hour training sessions can be very challenging, but not this time. Thanks Fran, great job 👍!
Had a great experience with Fran, nothing was a problem, no question was stupid, and was treated with the greatest respect, which made the learning easy and reatainable, which is hard for some mature students
I have just completed my Working at Heights ticket and my Working in Confined Spaces ticket through Upskills QLD.
My trainer Jase, was exceptional in outlining the safety aspects and explaining the real-world applications of each component in a comprehensive manner.
I would/will strongly recommend their training organisation to anyone 10/10
I thoroughly enjoyed my class with Jase.
He was very clear precise and to the point with a bit of humour thrown into the mix.
I cannot speak more highly about the way they present there course and would highly recommend them to anyone who would be looking to do the course.
Well done guys.
I did my training with Fran from upskills this week, and over the years she has definitely been the best person I have been trained by. Training was very informative, fun, not stressful and her knowledge was very relevant to my job.
I attended the TMI training on Friday. Fran was my trainer and I must admit, as a trainer of trainers myself, she was excellent.
Not only does Fran know her stuff, she has the ability to keep people's attention and to get the correct information out there.
She does this, not just by training, but by facilitating the training. In other words, she asks the question, and gets people to come up with the answers themselves.
I personally always found this to be the best method of training. When people think for themselves they remember it better and this always helps while doing the job.
Not only is Fran knowledgeable but she is very personable and approachable. She calls each person by their name and looks them in the eye while speaking to them. She can have a joke and a laugh which is very important, yet more importantly, she gets her message across.
I saw men, who have been in the industry for years, admit to Fran that they had learned more in that one day with her than they had in years. Fran is a true asset to your company. Look after her ...
Thank you Fran and I look forward to attending your classes again.
Just a small comet on FRAN my trainer who was good communicator and easy understood with her training being to the point and up to date she taught me more knowledge today in my cause TMI renewal
Jason was knowledgeable with vast experience and able to answer even the curve ball questions. He was pleasant and a great educator. Would recommend him to any organisation who needs to skill their staff.
I recently had to redo my level 1 traffic control ticket and I had Frances jay of upskills as my trainer 👌🏼
She really knew her business and qualifications, opened my eyes to alot of things that were unprofessional and just plain wrong working for other companies in the past and taught me alot of things I'd had no idea about and helped me better understand traffic control as a whole!
The class was very well planned, very informative and entertaining to say the least. Highly advise taking the class with such professionals thanks guys.
Completed Working in Confined Spaces and Safely Working at Heights at Upskills Qld Kippa Ring. Training facility and equipment was excellent and new. Knowledgeable trainer and thorough at making sure the course ware was understood.
Two days spent at Upskills , immediately noticed on arrival that all staff were welcoming, polite and personable.
Trainer Scott , second to none ! He has a Happy , positive outlook and energy , funny and extremely knowledgeable. He made the course an extremely positive experience.
I will definitely use Upskills again when required because of this .
I had Fran and Jason as instructors for my white card and traffic control. Both of them were very accommodating towards myself not being able to put pen to paper. Definitely recommend this company for people who struggle with paperwork and training in general
My employer uses this company for staff to be trained in Traffic Control and Traffic Management Implementation. The trainer, Jason, is a mine of knowledge and explains policies and procedures very clearly, ensuring all students complete the courses with the theoretical, administrative and practical skills required.
Hi, I was very impressed with Upskills and Jason my Trainer. I have over 30 years in the civil construction industry and Jason was able to teach an old dog new tricks. For anyone interested in TC or TMI courses I highly recommend learning from Upskills Qld the correct way.
Thanks Jason and Upskills Qld.
Their trainer Fran was amazing. She was very friendly and very knowledgeable on all things traffic control. She was able to work with everyone to help them understand the material and I learned a great deal in the short time we had her for. I would definitely recommend upskills and this wonderful trainer to anyone wanting to enter into traffic control.
Scott was absolutely amazing, I went in there thinking I made the wrong choice but he made me realise that I made the right choice. I absolutely loved going and learning about traffic. He always explained it in a way I could understand it and he made it fun which is what you need when sitting in a room all day and we all have good laughs along the way.
Today was a fantastic day with Fran from upskill she is a fantastic teacher and explained everything in a way you can understand stand it we did our TMI in Bundaberg big shout out to Fran and keep up the hard work
